tUsing the Self-Timer

You can set the Self-timer to shoot after either two or ten seconds. A setting of two seconds is useful for preventing camera shake.

1 Switch the mode selector to 5.

2 Press the t (Self-timer) button.

The Self-timer symbol appears on the screen.

The [10] to the right of the symbol indicates the number of seconds. In this case, if you press the shutter release button, the camera shoots after 10 seconds.

Each press of the t (Self-timer) button changes the self-timer setting in the following order: 10 sec, 2 sec, and Self-timer Off.

3 Press the shutter release button.

The focus is locked, and the AF auxiliary light/self-timer lamp lights for 8 seconds when the self-timer starts and then blinks for the final 2 seconds.

Note ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The camera remains in self-timer mode even after the image is shot. To cancel the self-timer, press the t (Self-timer) button and change the self-timer setting to [Self- Timer Off].

When the AF auxiliary light/self-timer is set to 2 seconds, the self-timer lamp does not light or blink.

If you are using the camera for the first time, read this section.
