Kodak DCS500 manual Using the Self-timer

Using the Self-timer

Two built-in Self-timer modes let you delay the exposure 10 seconds or 2 seconds from the time you press the Shutter button. When using the Self-timer ( ) place the camera on a tripod or a steady surface.

1 Open the Palm door and press the Drive Mode Selector button.

The current frame advance mode is displayed in the Top LCD panel for approximately 6 seconds.

2 Turn the Main dial until the desired Self-timer mode appears in the Top LCD panel.

10 : 10-second timer

2 : 2-second timer

Use the 10-second self-timer when capturing an image of a group of people or a scene that you want to be a part of, and use the 2-second self-timer when you want to minimize camera- shake (camera vibration induced when the Shutter button is pressed) while capturing close- up images or duplicate images.

3 Looking into the viewfinder, compose the picture and press the Shutter button halfway to focus the subject and set the exposure.
