Taking Photographs—Interval Timer Photography
During Shooting
During interval timer photography, the
icon in the top control panel will blink. Imme-
diately before the next shooting interval begins,
the shutter speed display will show the number
of intervals remaining, and the aperture display
will show the number of shots remaining in the
current interval. At other times, the number of intervals remaining and the
number of shots in each interval can be viewed by pressing the shutter-re-
lease button halfway (once the button is released, the shutter speed and
aperture will be displayed until the exposure meters turn off).
To view current interval timer settings, select Intvl
timer shooting between shots. While interval
timer photography is in progress, the interval tim-
er menu will show the starting time, the current
time, the shooting interval, the selected number
of intervals and number of shots, and the number
of intervals and shots remaining. None of these
items can be changed while interval timer pho-
tography is in progress.

subsequent photographs will be taken at a shutter speed of 1 /

s.
• The monitor will turn off about four seconds before each interval.
• If voice memos are recorded automatically after shooting, voice memos will end two
seconds before the next photograph is taken.
