Taking Pictures with the Self-timer
The camera is equipped with a ten-second and two-second timer for self-portraits. 
This feature is useful for reducing the effects of camera shake that occurs when 
pressing the shutter-release button. When using the self-timer, use of a tripod is 
recommended. 
1
Tap the self-timer control.
The self-timer menu is displayed.
2
Tap 10
s or 2s.
10
s (ten seconds): Use on important occasions, such as 
weddings
2
s (two seconds): Use to prevent camera shake
The selected self-timer mode is displayed.
Tap H to close the menu and return to shooting mode 
without changing the self-timer setting.
3
Frame the picture and press the 
shutter-release button halfway.
Focus and exposure will be set.
4
Press the shutter-release button the 
rest of the way down.
The self-timer starts, and the number of 
seconds remaining before the shutter is 
released is displayed in the monitor. The self-
timer lamp blinks while the timer is counting 
down. About one second before the shutter is 
released, the lamp stops blinking and glows 
steadily.
When the shutter is released, the self-timer will 
be set to 
OFF.
To stop the timer before a picture is taken, press 
the shutter-release button again.
