Wikipedia defines chimping as "The habit of checking every photo on the camera display immediately after capture".
Needles to say, this is bad.
See, when you chimp, there is a great chance that you will miss the action happening just in front of you.
So, learn how to use your camera, train your eye, and you will be able to use your camera instinctively without looking at pictures each time you press the shutter. This way, you won't miss the shot. :)

This is a very true statement.
