One of the first things that everyone does when they get a new camera is disable the autofocus confirmation beep. The reason why it's activated to begin with is because of the need for an audio confirmation that the camera you're using is actually acquiring and locking with its autofocus.
But photographers instead have just always used the visual cues on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. They tend to work well enough; but recently with my dive back into retro point and shoot cameras, I've been thinking more about the autofocus confirmation beep. Considering how seriously lacking of a sensory experience modern photography is, I think that it's a great idea to keep is on situationally. . thephoblographer.com
