Advanced (Recording pictures)
Note
•
When using a tripod etc., setting the self-timer to 2 seconds is a convenient way to avoid the
jitter caused by pressing the shutter button.
• When you press the shutter button once fully, the subject is automatically focused just before
recording. In dark places, the self-timer indicator will blink and then may turn on brightly
operating as an AF assist lamp (P88) to allow the camera to focus on the subject.
• We recommend using a tripod when recording with the self-timer.
• The number of pictures which can be taken in [BURST] is fixed to 3.
• The number of pictures which can be taken in [FLASH BURST] in scene mode is fixed to 5.
• Self-timer cannot be set to 2 seconds in Intelligent auto mode.
• Self-timer cannot be set to 10 seconds in [SELF PORTRAIT] in scene mode.
• Self-timer cannot be used while in [HI-SPEED BURST] in scene mode.
[REC] mode:
Compensating the Exposure
Use this function when you cannot achieve appropriate exposure due to the difference in
brightness between the subject and the background. Look at the following examples.
Press [MENU/SET].
• You can also press the shutter button halfway to finish.
• The menu screen disappears after about 5 seconds. At this time, the selected item is
automatically set.
Press the shutter button halfway to focus
and then press it fully to take the picture.
• The self-timer indicator A blinks and the shutter is
activated after 10 seconds (or 2 seconds).
• If you press [MENU/SET] while the self-timer is set, the
self-timer setting is canceled.
