Description
The image is captured about 10 seconds after the
shutter button is pressed.
The image is captured about 2 seconds after the
shutter button is pressed.
The first image is captured about 10 seconds after the
shutter button is pressed. Then the camera prepares
for a second image by charging the flash, if required.
The second image is captured 2 seconds later. The
10+2 mode is convenient when capturing group images
in succession.
This mode allows a specified number of images to be
captured over a fixed time-interval. The interval can
be set to 1, 3, 10, or 60 minutes, and the number of
images can be set from 2 to 99. Between shots, the
viewfinder LED flashes red and the LCD monitor is
automatically turned off. (standby mode)
The self-timer setting is automatically cancelled after an image is captured.
Use of the [ 2S ] self-timer setting is effective in preventing motion-
blur that can result when the shutter button is pressed at long exposure
times. Use this mode and a tripod for best results..
The number of images that can be captured will differ depending on the
capacity of the SD card, the image settings, and other factors.
Interval photography is not available for when shooting TIFF images.
