HP Photosmart M415 User’s Manual
Using the Self-Timer Settings
1. Secure the camera to a tripod or set it on a
stable surface.
2. Press the Timer button until Self-Timer or Self-Timer
- 2 Shots appears in the Image Display. The icon for
the self-timer setting will appear in the Live View screen.
3. Frame the subject in either the viewfinder or in Live View.
(See Using Live View on page 34.)
4. The next steps depend on whether you are taking still
pictures or recording video clips.
For Still Pictures:
a. Press the Shutter button halfway down. The camera
measures and then locks the focus and exposure. The
camera will hold these settings until it takes the picture.
b. Press the Shutter button all the way down. If Live View
is on, a 10-second countdown appears on the Image
Display. The Self-Timer/Video light on the front of the
camera then blinks for 10 seconds before the camera
takes the picture. If you set the camera to Self-Timer -
2 Shots, after the first picture is taken, the Self-Timer/
Video light blinks for a few more seconds until the
second picture is taken.
TIP: If you immediately press the Shutter button all the way
down, the camera will lock the focus and exposure just
before the end of the 10-second countdown. This is useful
when one or more subjects will be entering the picture
during the 10-second countdown period.
TIP: You cannot record audio with a still picture when using
the self-timer settings, but you can add an audio clip later
(see Record Audio on page 69).
