[QUOTE="stevwolf, post: 113358, member: 12893"] Thanks for your answer. Ok this may be a long discussion. Because there seems to be a lot of talk about the mirror in LV and what happens to it when taking a picture. It is my understanding that the mirror in live view is up and that it stays up. That it does not come down during the process. Thats why the eye piece does not work in LV. Some say that the way to keep the mirror up if you want to stop vibration is indeed to put it in LV single servo and this keeps it up. Also try this experiment. Put your camera in LV then do One of these two things. 1. Let the camera sit unill the LV turns off, times out. You will hear the mirror go back down. from being kept up, I believe. So the mirrors is up in LV from what I can tell. 2. Turn on camera, turn on LV now remove the lens with the camera on. You will hear the mirror coming down, its very distinctive. If you look at a utube video [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQS8U02of7g]Nikon D3100 Mirror Lock up trick - YouTube[/url] This person has a 3100 but shows that in LV that the mirror stays up. It is my understanding that in live view the mirror has to be up because its now using the Sensor like a live camera and then displaying it on the monitor on the rear of the camera. I think if you look down the lense with the lens on you can even see the difference between when the mirror is up and down. I think the mirror stays up all the time. I am no expert but these appear to be my observations. What are your thoughts on these comments. Regards [/QUOTE]
