blinks and the
shutter is activated
after 10 seconds (or
2 seconds).
• If you press the [MENU] button when
the self-timer is set, the self-timer
setting is cancelled.
• When using a tripod or in other cases,
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 fully
with one stroke, the subject is
automatically focused just before the
recording. In dark places, the self-timer
indicator blinks and then it may turn on
brightly to work as the AF assist lamp
(P90) for focusing on the subject.
• When you set the self-timer in the burst
mode, the camera starts taking a picture 2
or 10 seconds after the shutter button is
pressed. The number of pictures taken at
a time is fixed to 3.
• We recommend using a tripod when
recording with the self-timer.
(When you use a tripod, make sure the
tripod is stable with the camera attached
to it.)
