Focus the subject.

The shooting procedure is the same as

for “Fully Automatic Shooting” (p.38).

Look through the viewfinder and press

the shutter button completely.
The beeper will sound and the shot will

be taken 10 sec. later.

During the first 8 sec., the beeper

beeps slowly and the lamp blinks

slowly.

During the final 2 sec., the beeper

beeps quickly and the lamp stays lit.

During the self-timer operation, the LCD

panel counts down the seconds until

the image is captured.

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

start the self-timer. Doing so prevents the camera from focusing on the
subject.
