From a distance of 5 m (16 ft) or less, aim the transmitter
on the ML-L3 at either of the infrared receivers on the
camera (0 3, 5) and press the ML-L3 shutter-release
button.
In delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp will
light for about two seconds before the shutter is released.
In quick-response remote mode, the self-timer lamp will
flash after the shutter has been released.
In remote mirror-up mode, pressing the
ML-L3 shutter-release button once raises the mirror; the shutter will be released
and the self-timer lamp will flash after 30 s or when the button is pressed a
second time.
D Before Using Optional ML-L3 Remote Controls
Before using the remote control for the first time, remove the clear plastic battery-insulator
sheet.
A Using the Built-in Flash
Before taking a photograph with the flash in P, S, A, M, or 0 modes, press the M (Y) button to
raise the flash and wait for the M indicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 119).
Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised while remote control mode is in effect. If the
flash is required, the camera will only respond to the ML-L3 shutter-release button once the
flash has charged.
In auto, scene, and special effects modes in which the flash pops up
automatically, the flash will begin charging when remote control mode is selected; once the
flash is charged, it will automatically pop up and fire when required.
In flash modes that support red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp will light for
about one second before the shutter is released.
In delayed remote mode, the self-timer
lamp will light for two seconds, followed by the red-eye reduction lamp which light for one
second before the shutter is released.
A Focusing in Remote Control Mode
The camera will not adjust focus in remote mirror-up mode or when continuous-servo
autofocus is selected; note however that if any autofocus mode is selected, you can focus by
pressing the camera shutter-release button halfway before shooting (pressing the button all
the way down will not release the shutter).
If auto- or single-servo autofocus is selected or
the camera is in live view in delayed or quick-response remote mode, the camera will
automatically adjust focus before shooting; if the camera is unable to focus in viewfinder
photography, it will return to stand-by without releasing the shutter.
A Remote Mirror-up Mode
Metering is not performed in remote mirror-up mode. Photos can not be framed in the
viewfinder while the mirror is raised.
