Treat your DSLR as a SLR... for a gig

Lately I was thinking that I use the digital extras on my camera a lot. Instant review, the shoot-edit settings-shoot-edit settings way of working.

This was not possible in the SLR days. So I decided that I will use my camera as a "standard SLR" next time on a (non-professional) gig. See if I can still do it. Shoot and look at the results later.

Why?

Because the instant review option costs a lot of time and battery power, and I may one day need al the battery power I have for shooting pics instead of reviewing.

Of course i will post the honest turnout. (that means: also if they turn out bad because of a wrong light setting or way-to-high ISO or Av preset.) I invite you to join me in this experiment. Hoping that it will lead to better knowledge of photography chances and situations, better insight in your own skills!

Or, if you think this is a bad idea, please tell me so before I start the experiment. Would be a waste of time...
