c2: Auto Meter-off Delay
c3: Self-Timer
This option (available in all shooting modes) controls how long
the camera continues to meter exposure when no operations are
performed.
Choose from 4s, 6s, 8s, 16s, 30s, 1minute,
5 minutes, 10 minutes, or 30 minutes.
The shutter-speed and
aperture displays in the control panel and viewfinder turn off
automatically when the exposure meters turn off.
Choose a shorter meter-off delay for longer battery life.
When
the camera is powered by an optional EH-5a or EH-5 AC adapter,
the exposure meters will not turn off automatically.
