Self-timer mode: Press the shutter-
release button halfway to focus, and
then press the button the rest of the
way down to start the self-timer. The
self-timer lamp will start to blink and a
beep will begin to sound. Two
seconds before the photograph is
taken, the self-timer lamp will stop
blinking and the beeping will become
more rapid. The shutter will be
released about ten seconds after the
timer starts.
The timer will not start if the camera is unable to focus or in other situations in
which the shutter can not be released.
Delayed remote and quick-response remote
modes: From a distance of 5 m (16 ft.) or
less, aim the transmitter on the ML-L3
at the infrared receiver on the camera
and press the shutter-release button
on the ML-L3. In delayed remote
mode, the self-timer lamp will light for
about two seconds before the shutter
is released. In quick-response remote
mode, the self-timer lamp will flash
afterthe shutter has been released. No
picture will be taken if the camera is
unable to focus or in other situations
in which the shutter can not be released.
If no operations are performed for about a minute after selecting delayed
remote or quick-response remote modes, the camera will automatically return
to single frame, continuous, or quiet shutter-release mode, cancelling remote
control mode.
Turning the camera off cancels self-timer and remote release modes and restores
single frame, continuous, or quiet shutter-release mode.
