Photographing to conform to purposes
Self-Timer
The shutter is released about 10 seconds after pressing the self-timer button. The LED on the front of the
camera illuminates for about 8 seconds, then blinks for about 2 seconds and then the shutter is released.
1. Fix the camera to a tripod.
2. Press the self-timer button.
Cock the wind-up lever and press the self-timer button
The self-timer mode cancels itself automatically.
•
When the shutter is set to "B" (bulb), the self-timer does not operate.
•
To override the self-timer, after having pressed the release, press the self-timer button
again. Then the self-timer lamp will go out and then the self-timer mode will be canceled.
• When using the self-timer the camera must rest on a steady support.
Precaution when Self-timer Photographing
• When battery check, the self-timer sometimes does not function because of the fact that the
amount of the battery to be consumed for shutter release function is different from that of the
self - timer functioning. In such a case, replace the battery with a new one.
