Surely not - power is only used to bring the mirror down again, and re-cock
the spring that lifts it out of the way (rather like a motor driven film
SLR), no?  The electromechanical system to do this is already present.
Power would obviously be used to light the screen and process the ccd image,
but again, no more so than in any other sort of digicam.
