Oh oh!! Yours might need a repair.



If I set the shutter speed at 1 sec or so it goes Chic then a second of silent then Tigg that's the AE-1. With the Nikon FM it went Chic and then Whirr for a second then Tigg.

I have an OM-1 SLR, and the mechanical timer makes those sounds. No menu to wade through, no flashing lights. It’s really simple, just cock it and wait. You know exactly when it’s going to trigger the shutter because the whirrr changes pitch, it gets lower, right before the shutter trips.

Ha maybe a camera maker will introduce a digital sound that mimics that old timer. Hey Nikon. Can you add that to the Zf? If you do I will buy a Zf. ;)

What I really meant is that the terms used perhaps not correct but if we understand each others that all it counts. If the labels on the cameras aren't strictly correct but we know the function it doesn't matter.
