Use the self-timer if you wish to get in the picture.
Use of a tripod is recommended.
1 Depress the drive button until (O) appears on
the LCD panel.
2 Assure that the subject is within the AF frame in
the viewfinder. Depress the shutter release but¬
ton fully.
3 The shutter will be released in about 10 seconds.
• When the self-timer is working, the Self-Timer
symbol (0 ) blinks on the LCD panel, and the
Self-Timer lamp blinks 3 seconds before the
shutter is released, letting you know when to
smile.
Notes on the self-timer shooting
• If you are standing directly in
front of the camera when start¬
ing the Self-Timer, the camera
will be focused in you, not the
main subject. Be sure that you
are behind, or next to the camera
when starting the Self-Timer.
• To cancel the self-timer at any
time after it's been activated, set
the main switch to the OFF posi¬
tion or depress the any other
button except the shutter release
button,
• When you want to use the flash
with the self-timer, ensure that
the red lamp is lit indicating the
flash has been charged before
operating the self-timer.
