• When using a tripod etc., setting the
self-timer to 2 seconds is a convenient way
to avoid the jitter caused by pressing the
shutter button.
• When you press the shutter button once
fully, the subject is automatically focused just
before recording. In dark places, the
self-timer indicator will blink and then may
turn on brightly operating as an AF assist
lamp
(P105)
to allow the camera to focus on
the subject.
• In intelligent auto mode [
], the self-timer
is fixed to 10 seconds.
• When you set the self-timer to [2SEC.] or
[10SEC.] in burst mode, the camera starts
taking pictures 2 or 10 seconds after the
shutter button is pressed. The number of
pictures taken at one time is fixed to 3.
• We recommend using a tripod when
recording with the self-timer.
