Technique for Self portrait mode

Press the shutter button halfway to focus. The self-timer indicator lights up when you are brought into focus. Making sure you hold the camera still, press the shutter button fully to take the picture.

The subject is not focused when the self-timer indicator is

blinking. Make sure to press the shutter button halfway again to focus.

The recorded picture automatically appears on the LCD monitor for reviewing.

If the picture is blurry due to the slow shutter speed, we recommend using the 2 second self-timer.

Note

The focus range is about 30 cm (0.99 feet) to 70 cm (2.29 feet).

The zoom magnification is automatically moved to Wide (1k).

The self-timer can only be set to off or 2 seconds. If it is set to 2 seconds, this setting will remain until the camera is turned off, the scene mode is changed or [REC] mode or [PLAYBACK] mode is selected.

The stabilizer function mode is fixed to [MODE2]. (P66)

The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].
