When the menu is displayed on the LCD monitor, pressing the Right but- ton 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.
