Canon 7D: should I get a 'beep' when pressing half-way to confirm focus? I dont. Only hear 'beep' at full-press along with shutter.

I don't have a 7D I have a 5D Mark iii. The remote switch acts just like the shutter button on the camera when I use it. Half press gives a beep only when focus lock has been achieved, full press and the shutter is activated, no beep at that time and it also locks for long or timed exposures. I have the lesser model too that I use with a 60D it does the same thing with no problems. You might check your setting for focus on the camera i.e. one shot, AI Focus, or AI Servo. My remotes seem to work great, use them all the time....if this doesn't help maybe try contacting canon.

It is a noisy lens, but so is the 50mm f/1.4. When back focusing it sounds a bit like a small electric toy car (it doesn't have an ring ultrasonic motor) and when locking focus there is a small click like sound. That's perfectly normal.

You can check on page 47, item 12 "Sound Prompt". It tells how to disable, and enable the sounds. It also has a chart of what the sounds mean. I have the Canon model, and use it often.

There is a button onthe back. Tap it and no more sound. Left side in middle. Also in manual. Great flash - enjoy!

You can if you wish, however, if you hold the shutter button down just a bit, the camera will auto focus (a green square will appear in the center, beep) and you're good to go. It's a great camera, love my pics with it.

There is a long wait period between fully depressing the shutter button (this is after focusing with a half press) and capture.By the time the picture is taken the moment is well over.I have a Canon G3 - it does not have a similar issue, however Canon's support is unwilling to acknowledge that there is a problem.Locking the exposure prior to the shot fixes the problem, but then you have to do this for each shot and it means another flash.

No noise and just a red glow. I've got 6 of these and love them. The bigger bucks seem to pay it less attention than yearlings and does for some reason. The runaway shutter only happens on mine when the batteries are low.

It may be the VR, which can make a clicking sound and humming sound. Turn it on and take shots, then turn off and take shots and see if there's a difference. Also, just test it when taking a shot; if it clicks and stops after the photo has been taken, it's the VR and nothing to worry about. VR includes little motors in the lens, so it's just those motors working.

What was the solution? I have the same problem with mine (sort of). It beeps, but so faintly that you have to put your ear right up next to the camera body to hear it. I did figure out where it eminates from; I took the lens off and set it to timed shutter release (so that I could here it beeping continuosly, and it comes from inside the camera behind the mirror. Is yours audible now, or just barely faintly beeping?

The reason the unit beeps is because there is something close by causing interference with the wireless signal between the camera and the monitor. Another cause for this beeping is the distance the two devices are from each other or the amount of objects (walls, etc.) blocking the signal. I've experienced this beeping early on with the monitor. I had an issue with having my iPad too close to the unit causing my problems. Hope this helps. We've had ours for 2 1/2 years now.

If you hear a click before and after focus and release the shutter in your camera is totally normal....switch the VR off and you will notice that the click disappears...not big deal is totally normal...actually i have a few lenses that click in some way when the VR or OS or VC is ON....for me the results are that really matters...however..without the Vr if the noise of "click" is there then you should call nikon or if you can return for an exchange....good luck...I have thus lens and i made an extensive research about it...plus, I have another lenses like the 105 sigma OS macro and tamron 70-300 VC that some way make some "click" when the VC,OS, or VR is on...

Yes! Within the settings menu "tools" there is a mute selection. Either on or off for mute. Once mute is selected (on) there is absolutely no audible sound for camera operations.

I just got an Alpha 58 and put my ancient 70-210 zoom on. Not only did it work, but when I turned it to full zoom (AKA "macro" position) and focused close, the screen lit up a green "MACRO" mode indication with the little flower. So it properly recognized a specific detailed function from a 25-year-old lens!

The default beep mode is on. Press Start once. Press timer/clock once. Press Start once. Press timer/clock once and that should turn off the beep. Check page 14 of the manual or this link. http://www.manualslib.com/manual/550707/Panasonic-Nnsn773s.html?page=14#manual

No, only when you want to focus, then that is normal. The there is a delay before the next shot but one can skip that if you want. Best camera we've had, great close-up shots.

well, i got the camera....was in loosely packed condition but intact. i took some shots after charging the battery. The auto-focus makes quite audible noise while focussing. However, the pictures are clear if you know how to work with settings.

Are you shooting in burst mode?Also make sure you have Long Exposure Noise Reduction turned OFF. Its found in the Custom Functions menus under Image (C.Fn-3).
