Using The Self-Timer - Canon EOS 750D Instruction Manual

j Using the Self-timer
Two sec. before the picture is taken, the self-timer lamp will light up
and the beeper will sound faster.
With <q>, the interval between the multiple shots may be prolonged
depending on the shooting functions settings such as the image-
recording quality or flash.
If you do not look through the viewfinder when you press the shutter
button, attach the eyepiece cover (p.351). If stray light enters the
viewfinder when the picture is taken, it may throw off the exposure.
After taking self-timer shots, playing back the image (p.97) to check
focus and exposure is recommended.
When using the self-timer to shoot yourself, use focus lock (p.69) on an
object at the same distance as where you will stand.
To cancel the self-timer after it starts, either touch the LCD monitor or
press the <YQi> button.
