self-timer, use of a tripod is recommended. Turn vibration reduction (A 86) off
when using a tripod.

The self-timer menu is displayed.
2 Use the multi selector to choose [ON] and
press k.
The self-timer icon (10 n) is displayed.
If a setting is not applied by pressing k within a few
seconds, the selection will be cancelled.
3 Frame the picture and press the
shutter-release button halfway.
Focus and exposure will be set.
4 Press the shutter-release button the
rest of the way down.
The self-timer starts and the self-timer lamp will
blink. The lamp stops blinking one second
before the photograph is taken and remains lit
until the shutter is released.
The number of seconds remaining before the
shutter is released is displayed in the monitor.
To stop the timer before a picture is taken, press
the shutter-release button again.
