Taking Pictures with the Self-timer

1 Switch the self-timer setting.

: Self-timer set to 10 seconds

;

: Self-timer set to 2 seconds

;

No display (canceled)

2 Focus on the subject to take the

picture.

• If you press the [MENU] button when

the self-timer is set, the self-timer
setting is canceled.

• 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.

• The self-timer indicator

1

blinks and the shutter is
activated after 10 seconds
(or 2 seconds).

• 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 (P65) for focusing on the subject.

• In simple mode [

], the self-timer is fixed

to 10 seconds. (P32)

• When you set the self-timer in the burst

mode, the camera starts taking a picture 2
or 10 seconds after the shutter button is
pressed. The number of pictures taken at
a time is fixed to 3.

• We recommend using a tripod when

setting the self-timer.
