Argh. I never thought the day would come… when i declare myself a “stupid user”. When i was working as a helpdesk staff at a local ISP, i came across numerous stupid users. People too dumb to know how to right-click, drag and drop, etc. But… today… today… i discovered that i am a stupid user too!! Argh!! *Covers face in shame*.
If u check out the old videos i took of Pinky when he was a baby, u’ll hear this tak tak tak tak sound in the background. For ages i thought it was ‘cos my digicam koyak already… but… but… Zounds found out what the problem was…. it’s a setting problem!! Setting problem means… user problem!! I’m a stupid user!! Boohoohoo! 🙁
Anyway, if anyone is using the Nikon 3700 too, and u are from the same stupid user club as me, the reason for the tak tak tak sound is ‘cos u’ve set the video focus mode to “continuous autofocus”. Change the setting to “single focus” and the sound will go away. It seems that the camera captures the focusing sound, hence the tak tak tak.
Sigh. I’m depressed. After years of techie snobbery, i’ve now joined the ranks of stupid users. Sniff.
