You now have 12 seconds to position
yourself in the shot.
• The self-timer lamp on the front of the
camera acts as a countdown indicator. The
lamp comes on solid when you press the
shutter release button, stays on for 10
seconds, then blinks for 2 seconds.
• Remember that the self-timer setting stays
ON for one shot only. If you wish to use the
self-timer again, you must reopen the menu
and set it back ON.
To cancel a self-timed shot...
You have 10 seconds to change your mind and cancel the shot after pressing the
shutter release button. To cancel, simply press the MENU button. You cannot cancel
the shot after the self-timer lamp starts blinking.

NOTE
• If you’re taking a shot of just yourself, first use the focus lock feature (p.80) to focus
on an object that is the same distance away as spot where you plan to position
yourself.
