Using the self-timer and remote control
Using the optional remote control to take pictures
Set the camera on such as
a tripod and compose the
shot.
● When you point the remote
control at the remote control
receiver on the camera and
press the W or T button on the
remote control, you can use the
zoom. The self-timer/remote
control lamp on the camera
flashes during zooming.
When you press the shutter
button on the remote control,
the self-timer/remote control
lamp on the camera flashes
for 3 seconds and then the
shutter releases.
● If the self-timer/remote control
lamp does not flash when you
press the shutter button, move
closer to the camera and press it
again. (Radio wave interference
can prevent the lamp from flash-
ing. If this occurs, change the
channel as directed in the instruc-
tions for the remote control.)
