Roy,

When you're using the digital SLR is there still that annoying half second delay between pressing the shutter realease and the camera actually taking the picture? The compact digitals I have had always seem to pause just before firing. Very frustrating when you're trying to capture the moment! Just wondered if digital SLRs are the same, before I consider buying one. My favourite camera is my Canon A1, it's older than God and weighs about 250 pounds, but I love it! Over the years I've used it for some serious macro photography.
