Lag when I press the shutter button - 10D

[gelaward19]

Hi everyone!  I pulled out my OLD Canon 10d camera and am playing around.  The camera takes a picture like 5 seconds or so after I push the button.  Any ideas on what the issue could be? Is it just too old? I bought it around 2007 I believe.  Thanks for your help! ~Angie

Is the camera taking all that time to focus? IS it focusing? Are you holding the shutter button until it takes the picture, or are you pressing it and letting it go?
