Anti-shock

You can select the interval from the time the mirror is raised until the shutter is released. This
diminishes camera shake caused by vibrations when the mirror moves. This feature can be
useful in astrophotography and microscope photography or other photographic situations
where a very slow shutter speed is used, and camera vibration needs to be kept to a minimum.
