10 Advanced Features

■ Programmable self timer ■ Programmable bracketing

■ Programmable interval setting ■ More than 25 custom options ■ Data and text imprinting

This section describes the features that might not need to be ac- cessed everyday but should be exploited wisely to obtain the opti- mum from the system.

Some features are a little more special, bracketing for example. This is fairly normal practice for many photographers and the H system can provide a good deal of control and ﬁne tuning of this particular feature.

More than 25 custom options are provided to work for you in the background, ensuring security and also helping to bring down the barriers between you and capturing the image. Each one can be changed to suit your preferences so that the whole camera be- comes a reﬂection of the way you like to work.
