Shutter release priority

Normally, this camera does not release the shutter while the AF is operating or
the flash is charging. If you want to release the shutter without waiting until
these operations have completed, use the setting below. You can set release
priority in S-AF (g P. 71) and C-AF (g P. 72) respectively. When
[RELEASE PRIORITY C] is set to [ON], Predictive AF is not available.
