j Using the Self-timer
If you will not look through the viewfinder when you press the shutter button,
close the eyepiece shutter before shooting (p.117). If stray light enters the
viewfinder when the picture is taken, it may throw off the exposure.
Do not stand in front of the camera when you press the shutter button to
start the self-timer. Doing so prevents the camera from focusing the
subject.
Use a tripod when using the self-timer.
The <l> 2-sec. self-timer enables you to shoot while not touching the
camera mounted on a tripod. This prevents camera shake while you
shoot still lifes or bulb exposures.
To cancel the self-timer after it starts, set the power switch to <2>.
When using the self-timer for self-portraits, use focus lock for an object at
about the same distance as where you will be (p.95).
After taking self-timer shots, you should check the image for proper focus
and exposure (p.156).
