How is the response time for shutter release, once the camera has focused?

The shutter release is very quick after the camera has focused. Not quite as fast as a D-SLR, but not a noticeable lag. The problem is that the focus lock can take some time (a sec or 2), especially for moving objects. There may be a technique to improve the time like pre-focusing, but for fast moving subjects, I just use a D-SLR.

Almost instanteous-not annoyingly slow like some small cameras. This is an excellent quality camera for the $$-picture quality is very good. I have a Nikon D80 and find myself using this camera more than the D80 because of the convenience and image quality

It does not focus per-say. It just triggers the shutter button. But, if your camera is set up to Auto Focus on the object, your "camera" will do it at the release of the shutter. Also, sometimes you may think the RC-6 is not working But, that's because you have light coming in through the view finder. Happy holidays! I hope this helps.

There is a delay as the camera focuses. To eliminate the delay, hold the shutter button down halfway until the camera beeps, then push it all the way.

Mine is about 3 seconds unless I hold but don't push the button then I control when it takes it and there is no lag.... Very good STARTER camera....

Hi, this camera has a timer with three settings: first - 10 seconds after the shutter is pressed; second - 2 seconds after the shutter is pressed, and third - photos are taken 10 seconds after the shutter is pressed and again 2 seconds later. I hope this answer your question.

You hold it half way down, it focuses, and then you press it all the way down and it takes the picture. There is a 3-6 second delay between pictures.

Yes....you can choose between two delayed settings: 2 seconds or 10 seconds. It's a GREAT little camera for the price especially. Takes terrifically clear shots and is very easy to use. I've enjoyed this camera very much

I'm not sure of the exact time of the shutter lag, but I'd guess it's around a 1/4 second, maybe a tad longer. I've only had a couple situations where I wished it had no lag at all, but it does have a little lag. Much shorter than the other point-and-shot digital cameras I've had. I think about the only way to eliminate ANY lag is to go with a digital SLR, but their bulk/weight doesn't work for me for vacation snapshots.

It is only a few seconds, maybe two or three. I used this camera for the first time this weekend on a getaway & had no issue with the slight delay. Still got great pictures.

I'm not an expert. That being said, I would say it does seem to pause when I'm ready to take a photo. Hope that helps.

I am not an expert photographer but I think the shutter lag is too long. Just took my camera to Africa for three weeks. Overall, I was very pleased with it, good zoom, great pictures. My photos were almost as good as those with much bigger fancier lots-of lens type camera. but I did have to wait too long to snap a second shot and I know I missed some photos.

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

I don't remember it taking anymore time than a second or two. It doesn't have the settings for continuous, but I did not notice much downtime at all between photos. Hope that helps.

I have no complaints. There is a mode setting for fast action which sets a relatively higher ISO speed and opens up the F stop to maximize the shutter speed. And of course, if you halfway depress the shutter, it virtually eliminates shutter lag.

Shutter lag is ok..it's just the time it takes for for the camera reset to take the next photo that I am not happy with...I guess I should not have such high expectations for a $149 camera..

Check your shutter speed... Most likely it's set on 1/15th which would allow for camera or subject motion. If you're talking about an actual lag from pressing the shutter button then that may be a defect (or may be focus hunting - try pre focusing)

I only get that level of delay during image processing depending on the shutter speed I am shooting at.
