b.

Press the

Shutter

button all the way down. If the Image

Display is on, a 10-second countdown appears on the

screen. The Self-Timer light on the front of the camera

then blinks for 10 seconds before the camera takes the

picture. If you set the camera to

Self-Timer - 2 Shots

, the

Self-Timer light blinks for a few more seconds until the

second picture is taken.

NOTE

If you immediately press the

Shutter

button all the way

down without using

Focus Lock

, the camera will lock

focus and exposure just before the end of the 10-second

countdown. This is useful when one or more subjects will

be entering the picture during the 10-second countdown

period.

NOTE

You cannot record audio with a still picture when using

the

Self-Timer

settings, but you can add an audio clip later

(see

Record Audio

on page 94).

For Video Clips:

To start recording video, press the

Video

button and

then release it. If the Image Display is on, a 10-second

countdown appears on the screen. The Self-Timer light on

the front of the camera then blinks for 10 seconds before the

camera starts recording the video.

NOTE

With either the

Self-Timer

or the

Self-Timer - 2 Shots

setting, only one video clip is recorded after the 10-

second countdown.

To stop recording the video clip, press the

Video

button

again; otherwise, the video will continue recording until the

camera runs out of memory.
