Cautions

• During sequential shooting, if the battery check blinks due to low battery, the camera

stops shooting and starts saving the pictures you have taken on the card. The camera
may not save all of the pictures depending on how much battery power remains.

• Fix the camera securely on a tripod for self-timer shooting.
• If you stand in front of the camera to press the shutter button halfway when using the self-

timer, the photograph may be out of focus.
