Appendix
 
For movies recorded using the self-timer, recording begins after 
your specified delay time, but specifying the number of shots has 
no effect.
 
When you specify multiple shots, image brightness and color tone 
are determined by the first shot. More time is required between 
shots when the flash fires or when you have specified to take 
many shots. Shooting will stop automatically when the memory 
card becomes full.
 
When a delay longer than two seconds is specified, two seconds 
before the shot, the lamp blinking and self-timer sound will speed 
up. (The lamp will remain lit in case the flash fires.)
