Using an Optional ML-L3 Remote Control

stable, level surface.

Frame the photograph.

Check focus by pressing the shutter-release
button halfway.

Take the photograph.

From a distance of 5 m (16 ft) or less, aim the
transmitter on the ML-L3 at either of the
infrared receivers on the camera (

0 1, 2) and

press the ML-L3 shutter-release button. In
delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp will
light for about two seconds before the
shutter is released. In quick-response remote
mode, the self-timer lamp will flash after the
shutter has been released.

Note that the timer may not start or a photograph may not be taken if the camera is
unable to focus or in other situations in which the shutter can not be released.
