4 Start the timer. Press the shutter-release button all the way down
to start the timer. The self-timer lamp will start
to flash. Two seconds before the photograph is taken, the self-timer lamp will stop flashing. The shutter will be released about ten seconds after the timer starts.
To turn the self-timer off before a photograph is taken, turn the release mode dial to another setting.
AUsing the Built-in Flash
Before taking a photograph with the flash, press the flash pop-up button to raise the flash and wait for the Mindicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 189). Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised after the self-timer has started. Note that only one photograph
will be taken when the flash fires, regardless of the number of exposures selected for Custom Setting c3 (Self-timer; 0 319).
