I've always turned it off. Not much it tells you anyway, after the fact, other than that the camera works. I still fool around with all of it, Leica III's of one sort or another, Rolleiflex, DSLR and now, most recently, due to a visit from Philippe Orlent, a Panasonic GF1 with a 20 and the big pimple on the top (electronic viewfinder). Did a wedding for money a little over a year ago and it sapped me. I'm starting to crawl back up out of a hole. I realized I could never do one as fine as Chris, ... it was ... such a bummer. (Clients liked it, I didn't). Nice browsing around all the new work by new people. Just getting warm.
