In a previous post I had suggested a few enhancements to Magic Zoom, ie thicker green bar or a green dot and/or some audio feedback.

This post is not a repeat of that request!

Whilst shooting today I noted that when Magic Zoom 'found' focus I could hear an audible click from the camera. I was using MZ with a manual lens (24mm TSE-E II) so it was not the lens making the sound.

My observation is, that if you are in a quite area, and you have difficulty with 'seeing' the MZ focus confirm (I use a hoodman to see mine on the LCD). listen out for the 'magic click': it may safe your day!

BTW I have no idea where the click is coming from: does anyone?
