camera blinks on and off with an electronic sound. The shutter will be 
released about 10 seconds later.  

* If you wish to clear the self-timer once it has started, close the Lens Shield 
or press the Self-Timer Button again.  

* When using the self-timer with flash photography, put the Self-Timer on 
after the Flash Ready Lamp is lit. (When the surrounding light is not 
sufficient, the Flash Button pops up immediately after the Self-Timer Button 
is activated. )
