how can i make my canon camera takes pictures faster?
even though i've already googled it and all, i'm looking for someone who has the same camera as me so i can change the right settings- i have a canon powershot SD990 IS. I usually use it on auto mode, if that helps. any tips would be appreciated!
elliot- i'm pretty certain i can since i have a manual options (like changing the shutter speed and aperture) but i'm not sure how to use it. that's why i was asking if anyone else had the same type of camera.
Do you mean the time between pressing the shutter button and actual picture is taken?
Well, most p&s cameras suffer from the extended shutter lag (that's the term for this), and yours is no exception. But there's something you can do to make it a little better for catching the moment! What you need is to pre-focus and anticipate the shot, and then take it when all things are right.
To do that - point your camera to where you expect action to take place and half-press the shutter button. The camera should focus and prepare for the shot, then give you a beep (or two, depends on model). Don't let the button go, keep it half pressed until the right moment, then take a shot by pressing it all the way down.
You'll find that the picture will be taken much faster, because the longest thing that happens when you press the button all the way down, is focusing. The p&s cameras use a very slow focusing mechanism, but there's little you can do about it, that's the kind of technology they use. But having focusing out of the way, you'll have much better chance to capture the action!
Good luck,
LEM.
