TAKING PICTURES
SELF-PORTRAITS (Self-timer)
The self-timer will delay the release of the shutter for approximately 10 seconds after
the shutter-release button has been pressed. The digital zoom, flash, exposure
compensation, and macro mode can be used.
Place the camera on a tripod and turn the
function dial to
to set the self-timer.
Arrange the camera and subject to
compose the picture. Frame the picture as
instructed in step 1 and 2 of the basic
recording operation section on page 27.
• If the subject is outside the focus frame, use
the focus-lock function (p. 28).
Press the shutter-release button all the
way down to start the self-timer.
• The self-timer lamp on the front of the
camera will blink slowly for eight seconds; it
will start to blink rapidly and then glow
steadily just before the shutter releases.
• Do not press the shutter-release button while
standing in front of the camera. When the
shutter button is pressed, focus and exposure
for the picture is set.
• To cancel the countdown, turn the function
dial to another position. Turning off the
camera will also cancel the countdown.
