Fuck no, going through burst shots later is pure hell.

No. End result is the only thing which matters.

Instead of capturing the decisive moment, capture the whole moment and decide later.

Works for making money.

There's a reason 10FPS motordrives existed in the 35mm era for Olympic games and stuff.

That's literally how you consistently capture the decisive moment, assuming you don't have supernatural precognitive powers.

E.g., here's a contact sheet from Henri "The Decisive Moment" Cartier-Bresson himself. Every once in a while you get lucky with a single shot, but basically every competent photographer takes a bunch of shots of any scene and works out which moment was the decisive one in post when they don't risk missing it.

Not disagreeing. It's how these systems are supposed to work.

Watching an EOS1n-RS chew through a full rolls of film in 3 seconds makes you realise how cheap film used to be, and how important getting that one instant is to those who make their money from capturing it.

The early F1's even had 250-shot film backs to go with them just to be sure the important bit wasn't missed while you changed rolls.

I’ve got an EOS RT and one of these days I want to try that sonofabitch in continuous mode just to feel the rush that comes from burning a whole roll in 7 seconds.

That doesn't look like burst/continuous mode to me, he's just moving around a scene/place.

No, that's just using a feature of your camera as it's inteded.
When I'm shooting scenes with a lot of movement, I always use burst mode.
Because why wouldn't I?
What's next, you consider manual mode with auto ISO cheating in sports photography?
Do what works best for you.

Quoted By:

I guess I questioned if it is cheating because it is not simply pointing the camera and shooting a single shot, where how good of a photographer you are would dictate how good that single shot turned out. When shooting continuous you get many benefits, like multiple chances at nailing focus, exposure, capturing the moment, etc. You then get to pick and choose which shot is best. To me this all diminishes the skill required in being a photographer - which is being able to control several factors to capture an instant. Similarly I previously asked if cropping and rotating photos is cheating, to which the consensus was that yes, it is.
