Normally, the shutter-release time lag is controlled for stability. This Personal Function
eliminates this control. As a result, the shutter-release time lag can be reduced by as much
as about 20 percent when the aperture needs to be stopped down by no more than 3 stops.
This is effective when a shorter shutter-release time lag is more important than a stable
shutter-release time lag.
Since the difference is in 10-millisecond increments, the time lag may not feel any
shorter.
