Snapshot Tutorial
With this feature, the camera automatically triggers a self-
timer countdown whenever it detects movement in the
vicinity of an icon on the monitor screen. This means you
can control operation of the self-timer from a distance by
waving your hand, so you can include yourself in the
image being shot.
