Configuring your Camera

Self Timer

Use the Self Timer to include yourself in the picture or to avoid camera

 

shake. Use a tripod or place the camera on a stable surface before using

 

the Self Timer.

 

When you set the Self Timer to 10s, the shutter will be released 10 seconds

 

after you fully press the Shutter button.

 

When you set the Self Timer to 2s, then the shutter will be released 2

 

seconds after you fully press the Shutter button.

 

After you compose the picture, lightly press the Shutter button and adjust

 

the focus. When you fully press the Shutter button, the viewfinder display

 

disappears and the Self Timer is activated. During the Self Timer

 

countdown, you hear an electronic beeping sound which speeds up during

 

the last two seconds. The Top Status LCD displays a countdown of the

 

remaining time.

 

1. Rotate the D-Dial to either 2s or 10s.

 

2. If you are using an Exposure mode other than Manual, cover the

 

eyepiece with the supplied viewfinder cap (see page 2-23) or with

 

your hand before pressing the Shutter button. This helps achieve

 

correct exposure by preventing interference from stray light.

 

3. Compose the picture, focus by lightly pressing the Shutter button, then

 

fully press the Shutter button.

 

NOTE: Once the Self Timer is activated, the shutter releases in two or ten

 

seconds. The electronic sound operates during Self Timer

 

operation, even if you set the Electronic Sound option to OFF.

To Cancel the Self Timer

• Rotate the D-Dial to another position.
