It's not worth worrying about as it is only a couple of seconds. Love to shoot with this thing. My wife no longer cringes about my need ing film, but then she did give me the Evil Eye when I told her I bought it. Good thing it was Valentines Day and she was sick when I told her. ;-) Gene -------------- Original message from Bill <von-ohlen@sbcglobal.net>: -------------- > Gads! > > I am obviously doing something wrong with the M8.
