¬Suggestions/Tips ¬
• When using a tripod or in other cases, 
setting the self-timer to 2 seconds is 
convenient to stabilize the jitter caused 
by pressing the shutter button.
• The self-timer 
indicator 
1 blinks 
and the shutter is 
activated after 
10 seconds (or 
2 seconds).
• When pressing the button fully at a 
stroke, the subject is automatically 
focused just before recording pictures.
• In Simple mode [
], the self-timer 
can only be set to 10 seconds.
• In Self-portrait mode [
], the 
self-timer can only be set to 
2 seconds.
• When setting the self-timer in the burst 
mode, you can take only 1 picture.
• We recommend using a tripod when 
setting the self-timer.
