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!"
As usual a lot of misinformation flying around here.
1. EV's will NOT use lead acid batteries, so the toxic waste argument is non existent.
2. Used batteries are VALUABLE and will be recycled. Lithium is non toxic.
3. Lithium is much better than NiMH, no need to go back to old technology.
4. Hydrogen and fuel cells are inefficient and insanely expensive, too many reasons to list here.
5. EV's don't keep us dependent on foreign oil.
6. New lithium formats last for thousands of charges and many many years.
7. Even powering EV's from coal there is less pollution than gas vehicles, plus the grid is a combination of many fuel sources cleaner than coal.
EV's are the future, get used to it.
