Self-timer

In the Capture menu (see page 35), if you press OK when the Self-Timeroption is highlighted, the Self-Timersub-menu displays. This sub-menu allows you to turn the self-timer on and off. When you set Self-Timerto either On or On - 2 shots, the

camera will take a picture 10 seconds after you press the Shutter button all the way down. If you set Self-Timerto

On - 2 shots, the camera will also take a second picture about 2 seconds after the first picture is taken.

Self-Timeris good for situations where you need to minimize camera shake. For example, keeping the camera steady on a tripod for a long exposure is easier if you use Self-Timer.

You can also use Self-Timerwhen recording video clips. The camera will start recording video 10 seconds after you press the Video button. However, with the On - 2 shots setting, the camera only records one video clip.

The default Self-Timersetting is Off. The Self-Timersetting resets to Off after each picture is captured or video clip is recorded, and when you turn off the camera. For information on using Self-Timer, see Taking self-timer pictures on page 27, or Recording video clips on page 25.
