Press the shutter button halfway to
focus and then press it fully to take
the picture.
• The self-timer indicator A blinks and the
shutter is activated after 10 seconds (or 2
seconds).
• If you touch [Cancel] while the self-timer is

Note
• When using a tripod etc., setting the self-timer to 2 seconds is a convenient way to avoid
the jitter caused by pressing the shutter button.
• When you press the shutter button once fully, the subject is automatically focused just
before recording. In dark places, the self-timer indicator will blink and then may turn on
brightly operating as an AF Assist Lamp to allow the camera to focus on the subject.
