Receptivity
When recording standby is called in the photograph , the length of time that the digital camera is required after power to be able to make an image.
While almost all analog cameras are ready to record immediately after being switched on, a digital camera needs a few seconds to boot the camera operating system .
Realistic information on the willingness to take pictures can usually not be found in the data sheets of the camera manufacturers, but only in independent tests; With many models, delays of two to three seconds can be expected under practical shooting conditions. However, some cameras, often compact cameras with an integrated flash unit, take five to more than 15 seconds to become operational.
Digital SLR cameras are usually (without flash charging time) ready in less than a second, some models are ready for the first picture about 100 milliseconds after switching on.
