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).

Note

•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.
