Shutter Lag test

This page will allow you to test your Digital Camera's shutter lag as follows:

1. Without pre-focus

  • Turn your camera flash off
  • Focus on the rotating image
  • Take the picture just as the arrow is crossing the 0 at the top
  • View the picture and record the time in seconds which is your shutter lag time

2. With pre-focus

  • Turn your camera flash off
  • Focus on the rotating image
  • Depress your shutter halfway to pre-focus the camera
  • Take the picture just as the arrow is crossing the 0 at the top
  • View the picture and record the time in seconds which is your shutter lag time when pre-focusing

The time when pre-focusing should be less.
