Self-timer
In the Capture menu (see page 35),
if you press OK when the Self-Timer
option is highlighted, the Self-Timer
sub-menu displays. This sub-menu
allows you to turn the self-timer on
and off. When you set Self-Timer to
either On or On - 2 shots, the
camera will take a picture 10 seconds after you press the
Shutter button all the way down. If you set Self-Timer to
On - 2 shots, the camera will also take a second picture about
2 seconds after the first picture is taken.
Self-Timer is good for situations where you need to minimize
camera shake. For example, keeping the camera steady on a
tripod for a long exposure is easier if you use Self-Timer.
You can also use Self-Timer when recording video clips. The
camera will start recording video 10 seconds after you press
the Video button. However, with the On - 2 shots setting, the
camera only records one video clip.
The default Self-Timer setting is Off. The Self-Timer setting
resets to Off after each picture is captured or video clip is
recorded, and when you turn off the camera. For information
on using Self-Timer, see Taking self-timer pictures on page 27,
or Recording video clips on page 25.
