When using a tripod or in other cases,
setting the self-timer to 2 seconds is
a convenient way to stabilize the jitter
caused by pressing the shutter button.
When you press the button fully with
one stroke, the subject is automatically
focused just before the recording. In dark
places, the self-timer indicator blinks and
then it may turn on brightly to work as
the AF assist lamp for focusing on the
subject.
In Intelligent mode [

], [10SEC.] or

[OFF] is selectable.
In [SELF PORTRAIT] mode, [2SEC.] or
[OFF] is selectable.
When you set the self-timer in burst
mode, the camera starts taking a picture
2 or 10 seconds after the shutter button
is pressed. The number of pictures taken
at one time is fixed to 3.
We recommend using a tripod when
setting the self-timer.
You cannot use the self-timer in [HI-
SPEED BURST].
