John, Yes, you can press it half way first for focusing or press it completely to snap the picture.

Yes you can. Pressing the shutter button half way will focus and then press it rest of the way to take picture(s)

Should be able to. My old A2000is and my current SX280 work that way. I had bought and then returned the 160. The pictures as displayed on my computer screen had a fuzzy look to them before doing any enlarging with the blow up button. Only a few looked reasonable. I shoot primarily in 80 ISO for best resolution, but that didn't help with the SX160. If you do not have your Canon camera yet you can go to their website and access the owner manual in pdf.

It doesn't specifically do that; once you press the button, the camera (if you have it on Automatic) will adjust focus and then take the photo immediately after!

No, it would be great if it had that option though. I haven't had any issues with the auto focus because the camera itself can easily be moved around.

Yes. I just tried it. You can also focus with the ND side to side switch. Also, like ryuxis stated, the zoom is considerably slower.

Yes, partially depressing this remote's button activates the camera's auto focus function, if that function is properly set up on the camera.

Hi Allison, yes you can. Set the camera to either one of these settings, Aperture priority or Manual mode and set the aperture to the highest f stop (lowest number), also change the focus area to flexible spot to enable you to choose which area to focus on. Thanks_Mitch

I dont have my body in front of me but i recall that you press the 2 buttons on the top left side of the camera that have arrows pointing to them and the word mode. After that'd you can turn the shutter dial to select A, M, Tv, Av, P.

Yes, the camera needs to focus, especially in low light settings. That is why you need to press the Shutter Button down half way, so the camera can figure out all the settings to take a good picture. After the camera meters your subject, then press the Shutter Button all the down and the camera takes the picture instantly. You probably should download the complete manual from Panasonic's web site. Hope this helps.

Yes, you have to push the button down several times or hold it down hard. Some times it does not focus.

Assuming you mean to set a timer to delay taking the picture, the answer is no. AT least I have not founfd a way to do this.

Holding the button down halfway allows you to focus on an off-center subject. For example, to focus on an off center subject, position that subject in the center of your screen and press the shutter halfway down to freeze the focus on that subject. While continuing to hold the shutter button down halfway, recompose the image on your camera and press the shutter button down the rest of the way to take the picture. If, on the other hand, you want to focus on the subject already at the center of your screen, just press the shutter button down completely and the camera will focus on the object in the center of the screen while taking the picture.

It sounds like you have your shutter set to a 10-second delay. Typically this setting is used when the photographer wants to be in the picture. Press the button to the left of the SET button and choose the single-shot or continuous option. Then the camera will take the picture as soon as you press the shutter.

Yes, I must wait for about a second or two for the camera to reach focus. This is in the program [P] mode, or the Auto. Also, if I see a perfect picture, there is a noticeable time lapse between when I press the button and the shutter "releases" [electronically]. This means that on many occasions I have to take another picture and hope for better.

Yes, this works as though you pushed the shutter button in any of the modes.

It will but you'll have to set your camera to continuous shot before otherwise it'll only take one shot. When you press it down, you can slide it up and it'll keep the button pressed so it's good for doing time lapse shots.
