3.1.1 Self Timer

The first menu item is the Self-Timer feature. In this example the self-

timer is currently OFF.

Press the enter key to go to the self timer sub menu:

Press either the "+" or "-" keys to toggle between the ON and OFF selections. After

making your selection press the enter key to save your choice and return to menu page

1/4. If you have invoked the self-timer notice how the Self-Timer icon appears in the

monochrome information LCD.

The next time you press the shutter button, there will be a 10-second delay before the

image is actually captured.

The second menu item on Page 1/4 is picture type:

There are three capture modes (picture types) -

You can capture still images (like a normal film camera)

Capture single frames with voice (audio) attached to each

Capture a burst – a series of nine consecutive still images

Press Enter key to display the Picture Type sub menu:

Press either the "+" or "-" keys to scroll through the three

choices. After making your selection press the enter key

to save your choice and return to the menu page 1/4.

If you choose "Still with Voice" each image will have a voice segment "attached" to

the image. When capturing an image with voice press the shutter as normal, but

continue to hold the shutter button and speak into the microphone, up to 10 seconds.

Note: Sound recording will take up memory space that would otherwise be used for image storage.

You may notice that the image counter decrements by more than one-number for each image captured

with sound.

Note: To retrieve your sound clips you must either connect the camera to your PC via USB, or use a

card reader to read the CF card directly. Using a serial data Twain connection, there is no mechanism

for audio file transfer.

If you choose "Burst" mode the camera will capture nine images in rapid succession

the next time you press the shutter. Burst mode images are captured at one-half

resolution, or 512 x 368.

Note: "Burst" is a feature you may use occasionally. When finished, do not forget to reset the camera

to "Still" or else you may surprised when your next image turns out to be a burst sequence.
