Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"We need a digital camera that can be switched on and fire off that first shot fast. It's not a commonly tracked statistic on any review site, and nobody seems to have this information for every camera. We were hoping other readers could inform us as to what small digital cameras can fire off their first pics in under a second (ideally under half a second). It needs to be small, but mostly, just really quick in operation. Thanks!"
Glandshanks, you filthy-feathered freak, you! I am sure you ACTUALLY BELIEVE that it was ME that did the thing with the "FLAMING-BAG-SUPPRISE" way-back-when, but I want to go on record to tell you ONCE AND FOR ALL TIME that you've got the WRONG GUY! However,... it WAS me who climed up to your slipery, slimey, disgusting, smelley old coups to spread SUPER-GLUE onto the perches. And yes, I suppose it WAS me that then created a trail of cat food throughout the neighborhood leading right up to your idiotic, pathetic and helpless pigeon buddies stuck in neet little rows kinda-like corn-on-the cob just bobbing their heads up and down and waiting for the dozens of hungry cats to enjoy. And, of coarse, it WAS me that attached the 200 ft. long cable to the muffler on your junker-Pinto then feeding it through your full trash-cans, lawn furnature, power mower, bar-b-que, porch-glider and finally secured around those dammed pigeon coups. Y'know J. B., after all these years I still get such a belley-laugh remembering the amazing noises commin' from behind your old car at 5;30 a.m. just a slam-banging all that junk from curb-to-curb down our normally quiet neighborhood street. And, as God is my wittness I never knew that pigeons could fly FASTER THAN A PINTO WHILE STILL INSIDE A CAGE! 'Coarse we all know now, that they can only do that for about a dozen blocks ...or so. Apparently, you weren't even aware of the situation since you couldn't hear over the roar of your damaged muffler. I can imagine the puzzled look on your face at about an hour-and-fourty-minutes of freeway travel later when pulling into your parking spot at the annual branch meeting of "THE AUDUBON SOCIETY." But, anyway, I had almost nothing whatsoever to do with the "JUST WATCH'EM SPLATTER THAT STUFF" incident of 1959. Yours, enduringly, Alnold Ledbetter, concerned resident. P.S. HEY, GLANDSHANKS,.. IF YOU DO SUCCEED SOMEHOW WITH CHANGING THE WORLD'S METHOD OF COMMUNICATION BY UTILIZING THOSE PRECIOUS BIRDS OF YOURS I WILL THEN SET-UP A COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY TO COMPETE HEAD-TO-HEAD WITH YOUR OWN. MY SYSTEM WILL UTILIZE BURNING SURPLUS FEATHERS (WHOLE PIGEONS WORK BEST) AND A WET WELCOME MAT. I HAVE ALREADY BEGUN A SERIES OF LOCAL TESTS OF MY SYSTEM AND YOURS SHOULD SOON BEGIN TO EXPERIENCE OCCASIONAL OPERATING DIFICULTIES. MY COMPANY SHALL BE KNOWN AS ARNIE'S SMOKIN' SIGNAL AND STORM-WINDOW REPAIR CORPORATION. CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE:use of this equipment in a moving vehicle is to be considered unsafe (we know that now for sure) and is not recommended. Heh, wonder what he's gonna do when he answers his doorbell to find a paper-sack on his porch, all-ablaze, bobbin up and down......
