Hi,
When you have a manual focus lense on your MZ7 and the body is set to AF
then the shutter shouldnt fire until the subject is focus.

Subject: Snap-in Focus in MZ/ZX-7?????
> Hi,
> In the June edition of the "Photographic" there's a nice article about the

> N65, Minolta Maxxum HTxi Plus and Pentax ZX-7. There are no testing - just
a

> Let me cite it: "The ZX-7 offers Snap-in Focus: Using a non-autofocus
lens,
> set the focus-mode switch to AF, focus manually at a desired distance, and
> fully depress the shutter button (use the optional Cable Switch F to lock
it
> down). When a subject arrives at the prefocused distance, the camera will
> automatically fire."
> What the hell? There's nothing of this kind in my MZ-7. With my SMC M 50/2
> mounted on I have focussing assist in both AF and MF mode and when I fully
