This is for recording still pictures using the timer.
Each time the icon is selected, the indication changes by one setting in the following
order:
Ø10 (Records after 10 seconds) # Ø2 (Records after 2 seconds) # setting canceled
When the button is pressed, a still picture is recorded after the Ø10 or Ø2 display
and the recording lamp flashes for the time which has been set. After record ing, the
Self-timer is canceled.
In Auto Focus Mode, if the button is pressed halfway once and then fully, the lens
focuses on the subject when the button is pressed halfway. If the button is pressed
fully all at once, the lens focuses on the subject just before recording.

To stop the timer midway through

Press the MENU button.
Setting the Self-timer to Ø2 is a good way to prevent image shake when t he button is
pressed while using a tripod etc.
This brightens dark areas so the image can be recorded clearly.
If there are extremely dark parts or the brightness is insufficient , the effect may not be
clear.
This makes the image brighter to prevent darkening of a backlit subject.
This makes skin colors appear softer for a more attractive appearance.
This is more effective if you record a person closely from the torso up.
If the background or anything else in the scene has colors similar to th e skin c olor, they will
also be smoothed.
If the brightness is insufficient, the effect may not be clear.
If you record a person in the distance, the face may not be recorded clearly. In this case,
cancel Soft Skin Mode or zoom in on the face (close-up) to record.
A more impressive image can be obtained by focusing on the object only in close-up
and shading off the background.
The unit can focus on the subject at a distance of approx. 70cm (28q).
If the magnification is 12k or less, then it is automatically set to 12k.
Tele Macro function is canceled when the zoom magnifica tion becomes lower than 12k.
