disabling beeps and minimizing sound produced when
mirror drops back into place. Beep does not sound when
camera focuses regardless of setting selected for Custom
Setting d1 (Beep; 0 292) and mirror does not drop back
into place until shutter-release button is returned to
halfway position after shooting, allowing you to delay
noise made by mirror. Mirror is quieter than in single-frame
