Self-timer Operation
k: 10-sec. self-
timer
l: 2-sec. self-
timer
Do not stand in front of the camera when you press the shutter button to
start the self-timer. Doing so will throw off the focus.
¡ Use a tripod when you use the self-timer.
¡ To cancel the self-timer after it starts, set the <
4> switch to <2>.
¡ When using the self-timer to shoot only yourself, use focus lock (p.67) for
an object at about the same distance as where you will be.
¡ The 2-second self-timer is effective for close-ups or photo duplicating
work to prevent camera shake (camera movement while the shutter
button is pressed).
