Any suggestions on how to make use of this stuff?
Thanks

I suppose you could turn the camera on, take the photo and turn it off when done. Nikon's usually do an emergency save before that power down if they are in the middle of a shot. This is also the work around of the hot pixel suppression algorithim Nikon uses on its RAW files.
