Camera Shutter Sound (Single Click)

The sound of a traditional camera taking a picture is iconic, but the collective memory often simplifies a more complex mechanical process.

What People Remember

Many remember traditional SLR cameras making a single, distinct 'click' sound when taking a photograph.

What's Actually True

Traditional SLR cameras actually make two distinct sounds: one for the mirror flipping up and the shutter opening, and a second for the mirror returning and the shutter closing. People often compress this into a single click in memory.
