There is no need to turn off a DSLR. Just leave it on, it will "go to sleep" and is so very quick to wake up by half pressing the shutter button.

The battery life of a DSLR is vastly better than any P&S I have ever owned, so there really is no need to shut it down totally, certainly not until you're ready to call it a day, and even then I often forget to do it.

And it saves time if you want to grab a quick shot. I keep mine in the on position on my dining room table, just in case something is happening at the bird feeder.
