Please disregard. The time mode was activated.


I purchase this camera last week from a POTN member. I just got the time to play with it today. When I hold down the shutter button to take a pic the camera would not take a picture at all. Not until 3 seconds later!!!!???

Does anyone know what causes this? What kind of protection do I get from Paypal purchasing on this forums?

Sounds like you have the self-timer activated. Just press the DRIVE/ISO button and turn the front dial until you see an empty box image in the small lcd display.

Update: Ha, I was right :)
