RobertW Posted November 18, 2007 Share #1 Posted November 18, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Has anyone experienced any significant improvement in the lag time between the pre-flash and flash after installation of the firmware ? I've been holding off of getting the 24D, for a number of reasons, besides the lack of bounce, another less impressive feature were comments about the lag time after the pre-flash, which increases the likelihood of subjects to have there eyes shut, when the main flash goes off. Thanks! -- Rob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shootist Posted November 18, 2007 Share #2 Posted November 18, 2007 Yes some have reported shorter lag times between the 2 flashes. This was covered when the firmware came out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jager Posted November 18, 2007 Share #3 Posted November 18, 2007 Yes, the lag time is noticeably improved. My empirical observation is that the pre-flash now blends in with the main flash. I rarely use flash on the M8, however, and so don't have any direct evidence that the eyes-shut problem is gone. It should be markedly improved, in any case.
