Using the Self-Timer

The COOLPIX 950 is equipped with an automatic timer with two

settings: three seconds, useful when making group photographs,

and ten seconds, ideal for self-portraits. To use the self-timer,

follow these steps:

1For self-portraits, mount the camera on a tripod (recom-

mended) or rest it on a flat, stable surface.

2Press the button until the icon appears in

the control panel or LCD monitor.

3Compose the photograph.

4Fully depress the shutter-release button to activate the timer.

Press the shutter-release button once for a ten-second delay.

For a three-second delay, press the shutter-release button

twice.

The red-eye reduction lamp next to the viewfinder will start to

blink one second before the picture is taken.

Tips

To stop the automatic timer before a photograph is taken, turn the mode

dial to a different setting. The timer will stop and the indicator will

disappear from the control panel and LCD monitor.
