A Interval Timer Photography

Interval timer photography can not be combined with remote control photography using

the optional ML-L3 remote control (0 127), live view photography (0 153), or movie live

view (0 161).

A Release Mode

Regardless of the release mode selected, the camera will take the specified number of shots

at each interval.

In continuous modes, photographs will be taken at a rate given on page 58.

In S (single frame) mode, photographs will be taken at the rate chosen for Custom Setting d5

(CL mode shooting speed, 0 239); in mode J, camera noise will be reduced.

A Bracketing

Adjust bracketing settings before starting interval timer photography.

If exposure, flash, or

ADL bracketing is active while interval timer photography is in effect, the camera will take

the number of shots in the bracketing program at each interval, regardless of the number of

shots specified in the interval timer menu.

If white balance bracketing is active while interval

timer photography is in effect, the camera will take one shot at each interval and process it

to create the number of copies specified in the bracketing program.

A During Shooting

During interval timer photography, the Q icon in the control panel

will flash.

Immediately before the next shooting interval begins, the

shutter speed display will show the number of intervals remaining,

and the aperture display will show the number of shots remaining in

the current interval.

At other times, the number of intervals

remaining and the number of shots in each interval can be viewed by pressing the shutter-

release button halfway (once the button is released, the shutter speed and aperture will be

displayed until the standby timer expires).

To view current interval timer settings, select Interval timer

shooting between shots.

While interval timer photography is in

progress, the interval timer menu will show the starting time, the

shooting interval, and the number of intervals and shots remaining.

None of these items can be changed while interval timer

photography is in progress.

Pictures can be played back and shooting and menu settings can be adjusted freely while

interval timer photography is in progress. The monitor will turn off automatically about four

seconds before each interval.
