Automatic shooting with Self-portrait timer

Point the lens at yourself so your face is reflected in the LCD screen. The camera detects the
subjects, and then the shutter operates. The camera determines the optimal composition and
prevents faces from being cut out of the LCD screen.

• You can also shoot a image by pressing the shutter button during this

operation.

Hints for preventing blur

If your hands or body moves while holding the camera and pressing the shutter button,
“Camera shake” occurs. Camera shake occurs frequently under low-light or slow shutter
speed conditions, such as those encountered in

(Twilight Portrait) or (Twilight) mode.

In such a case, shoot with the below tips in mind.

• Shoot with a 2-second delay self-timer and

stabilize the camera by holding your arms firmly at
your side after pressing the shutter button.

• Use a tripod or place the camera on a flat surface

to hold the camera steady.
