Mirror lock

Hi David,

I have the canon 600d (rebel ti3) and the mirro lock option is available when you select manual mode, press the menu button, and then go into custom functions ( this menu option is not visible when you use auto mode or some other modes), on my camera it is option 8 (c.fn III:autofocus/drive, mirror lockup).

Once switched on you will need to press the trigger to open the mirror, then again to open the shutter.

Good luck with the imaging, I find using mirror lockup it takes about 10 seconds to stop shaking then you can trigger the shutter to open and start exposing.

Cheers

Anthony
