Surely its better than not being able to focus???
I really dont understand the problem here. Especially WRT the MZ-S.
There is a PF to turn it off, it only happens if you have the flash
popped up anyway, and if you have a flash with an IR sensor it will use
that instead. Would you rather the camera refused to take a picture due
to inability to focus, or would you like it to randomly focus and take a
picture hoping for the best?
Why is this soo bad?

Yesterday I asked the list about a friend's Espio P&S
camera that did exactly this.
If this is a normal feature, then it is bad news for
me. It happened in a low light situation but enough to
have a dinner. This pre-fire is so disturbing that I
hoped it was an 'early unit flaw'.
