Self-timer Operation

k: 10-sec. self-

timer

l: 2-sec. self-

timer

Do not stand in front of the camera when you press the shutter button to

start the self-timer. Doing so will throw off the focus.

¡ Use a tripod when you use the self-timer.

¡ To cancel the self-timer after it starts, set the <

4> switch to <2>.

¡ When using the self-timer to shoot only yourself, use focus lock (p.67) for

an object at about the same distance as where you will be.

¡ The 2-second self-timer is effective for close-ups or photo duplicating

work to prevent camera shake (camera movement while the shutter

button is pressed).
