Basic Shooting Settings
Using the Self-timer
The camera is equipped with a 10-second and 2-second timer for self-portraits.

pressing the shutter-release button. When using the self-timer, use of a tripod is
recommended. Set Vibration reduction to Off from the setup menu (A74)
when using a tripod to stabilize the camera.
