It locks the mirror up, such that you can take the shot without the mirror (and diaphragm) movement and vibration ruining your photo. This is neat for shutter speeds roughly between 1/15 and 4 sec. This was all explained at length and in detail, before the thread happily derailed. Thank you for bringing us back on track by repeating the original question. > Deniz Saylan > Photojournalist PJ? Nope, you don't need it. And those who don't need it, aren't professional, or use an M (says this thread). Bernard
