Shooting Features
Using the Self-timer
The camera’s self-timer can release the shutter about 10 seconds after you press the shutter-
release button.
The self-timer is useful when you want to be in the picture you are taking, or when you want
to avoid the effects of camera shake that occur when you press the shutter-release button.
When using the self-timer, use of a tripod is recommended. Set Vibration reduction to Off
in the setup menu (A 96) when shooting using a tripod to stabilize the camera.
1 Press the multi selector J (n self-timer).
2 Press H or I to select ON and then press the
k button.

If a setting is not applied by pressing the k button within
a few seconds, the selection is canceled.
When Pet portrait is selected in scene mode, Y (pet
portrait auto release) is displayed (A 44). The self-timer
cannot be used.

shutter-release button halfway.
