Agreed. I also think 3-4 sec is too much, but I am trying hard to like this phone

On the other hand, an advantage of touch-controlled camera that I learned from one of N8 promotional videos is that it may allow for a steadier shot... still I am likelier to use the dedicated button.

So when is this thing coming out?
