j Using the Self-timer
With <
q
>, the interval between the multiple shots may be prolonged depending on
the shooting functions settings such as the image-recording quality or flash.
After taking self-timer shots, you should check the image for proper focus and exposure (p.71).
If you will not look through the viewfinder when you press the shutter
button, attach the eyepiece cover (p.262). If stray light enters the
viewfinder when the picture is taken, it may throw off the exposure.
When using the self-timer to shoot only yourself, use focus lock (p.53) on
an object at about the same distance as where you will stand.
To cancel the self-timer after it starts, press the <
YiQ
> button. To cancel
the self-timer during Live View shooting, set the power switch to <
