J Using the Self-Timer

To use the self-timer, press the selector down (

h) and choose from the following options:

T (OFF)

Self-timer off.

S (10 SEC)

The shutter is released ten seconds after the shutter button is pressed. Use for self-portraits.
The self-timer lamp on the front of the camera lights when the timer starts and begins to blink 
shortly before the photo is taken.

R (2 SEC)

The shutter is released two seconds after the shutter button is pressed. Use to reduce blur 
caused  by  the  camera  moving  when  the  shutter  button  is  pressed.  The  self-timer  lamp  will 
blink as the timer counts down.

e (INTERVAL 

SHOOTING)

Shoots photos automatically at fixed intervals.

Because it ensures that the faces of portrait subjects will be in focus, Intelligent Face Detection (

P 33) is recom-

mended when using the self-timer for group portraits or self-portraits.  To use the self-timer with Intelligent Face 
Detection, select 

S 10 SEC or R 2 SEC in the self-timer menu and then press the shutter button all the way 

down to start the timer.  The camera will detect faces while the timer is counting down and adjust focus and ex-
posure immediately before the shutter is released.  Be careful not to move until the picture has been recorded.

The self-timer turns off automatically when the picture is taken, a different shooting mode is selected, playback
