Shutter Sound
The D70S is equipped with a combined electronic (CCD) and mechanical shutter. This
shutter operates on a different principle from the mechanical shutters found in fi lm
cameras. As a result, the interval between the sounds made by the shutter and mirror
will not decrease past a certain point, even at high shutter speeds.
While the photograph is being recorded to the
mem o ry card after shooting, it will be displayed
in the monitor (see opposite) and the access lamp
next to the card slot cov er will light.
Do not eject
the mem
o ry card, turn the camera off, or
remove or dis con nect the power source until
the lamp has gone out.
Re mov ing the memory
card or cutting pow
er in these cir
cum stanc es
could result in loss of data.
Step 6—Take the Photograph
Smoothly press the shutter-re lease button the rest
of the way down.
