Taking Pictures With the Timer

Setting the timer creates a 10-second delay between
the time you press the shutter button and the actual
image capture. This allows you to take a picture of
yourself.

NOTE

You can also use continuous or interval shooting, or video clip

capture with the timer for delayed automatic capture of images.

This allows you to photograph yourself in motion. See Chapter 3

for more information.

To take a single picture with the timer:

1

Secure the camera on a flat surface or on a tripod. (See
page B-4 for information on attaching the camera to a
tripod.)

2

Turn the camera’s dial to

or . Then wait until the

photo capture light stops flashing and remains a steady
green.

3

Press the timer button
on the top of the camera.
The timer icon appears in
the status display panel.

4

Press the shutter button all
the way down.

The timer icon and the red timer light on the front of
the camera flash slowly for eight seconds. Then they
flash rapidly for two seconds before the shutter is
released. If camera sounds are enabled, the camera beeps
ten times. (See page 7-3 to enable camera sounds.)

NOTE

To cancel a timer picture after you’ve pressed the shutter

button, press the shutter button again, or press the

timer button.

The camera clicks when the image is captured. The
photo capture light on the back of the camera flashes
green as the PhotoPC 3100Z processes the image.
