Self-timer ( ) / Right button

When the menu is displayed on the LCD monitor, pressing the Right button makes the cursor shift to the right tab.

When the menu is not displayed on the LCD monitor, the RIGHT button operates as the Self-timer ( ✢) button. This function is used when the photographer would also like to be in the image.

If you operate the Self-timer button during the self-timer operation, the self-timer function is cancelled.
