So the shutter delay on my little Sony 2.0 megapickle camera is driving me to pull out my hair. Do I have to spend $1000 to get rid of that stoopid delay? I don’t demand much from my cameras, just take the picture when I push the gosh-darn button.

I am still using the camera that I gave to Doris when she went to MIT. I am a low tech guy and that camera serves me well. No intention to replace with anything.
how old is your camera? All the newer P&S cameras do a pretty good job with the shutter delay. if you want instant shutter response then you probably have to spend the money on a digital SLR tho.
It was born the same time as Vince, 2002. Actually, I’m a bit sheepish to admit this, but I think most of the time it is OK, but in low light or when the flash has to charge, then the camera takes longer to focus and then when I push the button, nothing happens. But I’m always taking these indoor shots with low light and flash. Do the newer cameras manage battery life better? I got new rechargable ones and the batteries still seem to run out quick.
Hey, did you see my little joke? Mega-pickle! Ha ha! I’m sooo funny!
I am going to buy one digital sometime soon. I think I am not that low tech. Only I have to do is to read the instruction or just play with it. This will be my first retirement project. To use digital camera.
Cool, then you can post pictures on our blog! Yah! It’s getting much, much easier to do.
I’m not sure about battery life, tho I will say that my camera seems to do okay in that dept.
ooh. what camera are you going to get mom?
Well, I am still a low tech guy, using what I have. Mom always complains that I wear the same stuff, eat the same things, doing the same routings, etc. all the time. My answer is that I always have the same wife, dating the same person and sharing with the same person, etc. all the time 🙂
