Photography Using Self-timer and Eyepiece Shutter

shutter will be actuated approximately 10 seconds later.
è Be sure to wind the self-timer completely.
è Be sure to wind the shutter. If this is neglected and only the self-timer is wound and the shutter button pressed, the self-timer will act
but the shutter will not be actuated.
è The self-timer lever can be used as a CdS actuating lever as soon as it returns to its original position. When taking shots with the eye
off the eyepiece, such as when using the self-timer or cable release, always be sure to close the eyepiece shutter.
Eyepiece Shutter

è For closing the eyepiece shutter, turn the eyepiece shutter ring to the left and set the index mark to [ ].
Flash Synchronization
By connecting the cord of the flash unit or speedlight to the flash socket, it is
possible to synchronize the following shutter speeds.
When taking pictures with flash, light volume adjustment is required because the
Canon PELLIX QL uses a stationary mirror. Obtain F stop by guide number and
further open aperture by one-half.
è A lens hood is necessary when taking flash pictures.
