Does this camera have a delay before taking picture: Does the Kodak Z60 have that kind of delay?

All non-SLR digital cameras have some sort of delay inherent in the system, it's the nature of the beast. The delay on the Z650 other than during image processing (burst mode or after shooting several pics in a row) is quite acceptable.

Like most digital cameras there is a distinct pause between pushing the shutter button and the picture being taken. So you may not get the exact picture you were hoping for. Other than that it works fine for this.

Pics are great in low light with no flash and the delay is very short. I love this camera!

there is about a 1 second delay with taking pictures; at least, it is when i'm trying to take a picture of my dog. there is a mode to place the camera in for pets; i tried it once. i do believe there was still a delay but the picture wasn't blurry. hope this helps.

There is no delay when you set the camera to take multiple shots and press the button and hold it. It is like taking a movie. But taking single shots in succession there is a slight delay. Again let me say it also depends on the speed of the flash card you are using and the batteries you are using. You do realize that taking single pictures in rapid succession, you are not giving the auto stabilization feature in the camera a chance to work and your pictures may come out blurred. Good luck!

I do not recall if it does. I returned it shortly after purchase because all it took was grainy pictures no matter the settings. It was replaced with a similarly priced Pentax Optio S1 in an aqua color shell, and that camera does have several self timer settings on it.

There is no time delay. As soon as you press all the way down the picture is captured. I love this camera. It's great!

I have not had any problems with the camera not taking the picture at all, however, focusing sometimes takes a relatively long time, especially when using the zoom. If I use the zoom in less than bright conditions, it sometimes takes a very long time to focus and shoot.

Not that I am aware of, but then again I have never used it for a delayed group shot. I would check the owners manual you got with the camera. I have not looked for this feature in mine as I have never had occasion to do a group shot.

Shutter lag when prefocused = less than 1/10 of a second Shutter lag with autofocus = about 0.6 seconds Shot to shot delay without flash = 4.7 seconds between frames with minimum review time On, 4.2 seconds with review Off Shot to shot delay with flash = 7.8 seconds between frames with minimum review time On, 7.3 seconds with review Off

The delay is about 1 second, but if you set the picture resolution to fewer megapixels, the delay should be shorter. These inexpensive cameras are not designed for taking action shots, or situations that require taking successive pictures very quickly. The Sony RX100 is much better, but it costs 5-6 times more.

The delay is not due to the shutter. The problem with this camera is it's S L O W auto focus. I'd the camera has the subject in focus it fires immediately when the shutter release is pushed. If you are trying to photograph a moving subject the forget about ever getting the shot with this camera. This camera is excellent for landscapes or anything that doesn't require fast autofocus.

Yes, there is lag. This has a CCD sensor, I have many cameras. I suggest if you want no shutter lag at all, a CMOS sensor camera. Panasonic SZ7 is a good one. It will take a photo almost instantly.

Hi, I have not noticed a lag between the shutter and the photo. And I find the Lumix to be an excellent point and shoot. One of the very best that I have tried.Harry
