NightShot Light
NightShot Light rays are infrared and so are invisible. The maximum shooting distance
using the NightShot Light is about 10 feet (3 m). The shooting distance will be twice or
more in the NightShot +Slow shutter mode.
Self-timer recording
You can make a recording with the self-timer. This mode is useful when you want to
record yourself.
(1) Press (self-timer) in the standby mode. The (self-timer) indicator appears
on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder.
(2) Press START/STOP.
Self-timer starts counting down from 10 with a beep sound. In the last two
seconds of the countdown, the beep sound gets faster, then recording starts
automatically.
