Notes about [Intvl timer shooting]

To prevent the camera from turning off unexpectedly during shooting, use a sufficiently
charged battery.

If the EH-5d AC Adapter and the EP-5C Power Connector (both available separately) are
used, this camera can be powered from an electrical outlet. Do not, under any
circumstances, use an AC adapter other than the EH-5d. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in overheating or damage to the camera.

EH-5d AC Adapter and EP-5C Power Connector (page 258)

Do not rotate the mode dial to a different setting while interval timer shooting is in
progress. Doing so causes the camera to stop shooting.

If the shutter speed is slow and saving an image takes time compared to the specified
interval, some of the shots during Interval timer shooting may be canceled.

A higher ISO sensitivity allows darker subjects to be captured. Additionally, even with

subjects of similar brightness, pictures can be taken at faster shutter speeds, and

blurring caused by camera shake and subject movement can be reduced.
• When a higher ISO sensitivity is set, images may contain noise.
