Self-timer Operation

The self-timer can be set to either a 2-second or 10-second delay. When

using the self-timer, you should mount the camera on a tripod.

While pressing the <mode>

button and <[U> button, turn the

< ¿Si > dial and set the desired

self-timer delay time.

Look through the viewfinder and

press the shutter button halfway

to focus.

• Check that the in-focus indicator and

exposure setting are displayed.

Press the shutter button

completely.

• The self-timer lamp will start blinking

to indicate that the self-timer has

started. The lamp blinks faster during

the last two seconds before the

picture is taken.

• To cancel the self-timer after it starts,

When using the self-timer to photograph yourself only, first lock the focus

(->p.45) on an object at about the same distance where you will be.

The 2-second delay is effective for close-ups or photo duplicating work to

prevent camera shake (camera movement while the shutter button is pressed).

o Do not stand in front of the camera when you press the shutter button to start

the self-timer. Doing so will throw off the focus.
