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).

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.

We recommend using a tripod when recording with the Self-timer.

The self-timer cannot be set when recording motion pictures.
