USING THE INTERVAL MODE
This mode closes the shutter in 60-second intervals.
You can enjoy the use of this mode in a variety of applications, such as the
wildlife observation of animals or birds where you need to keep a certain
distance or the growth records of plants.
(Samples 1, 2, 3: See next page.)
1. Set your camera to the Interval Mode. (Fig. 46)
2. Press the Shutter Release Button. After 60 seconds, the shutter will release.
Then, your camera will automatically make another exposure every 60 seconds
until the Interval Mode is cancelled.
3. Press the Mode Button to cancel it, or close the Lens Cover. Confirm that the
(60) mark disappears.
* When the Interval Mode is activated by pressing the Shutter Release Button, the symbol that was displayed on
the LCD Panel will blink (Fig. 47)
* At the end of the roll, your camera will automatically rewind the film and reset to the normal condition.
* You can also release the shutter during the Interval Mode.
(If the Interval Mode is not cancelled, the shutter will be released again 60 seconds after it was last released.)
* When in the Interval Mode, if the surrounding lighting is insufficient, the Flash
Unit will pop up automatically and the Interval Mode will be activated after the
flash is charged and ready. Pictures will then be taken with flash. All pictures
will be taken with flash unless the mode is cancelled or unless there is sufficient
lighting and the Flash Unit is pushed back down.
* To cancel the Interval Mode, press the Mode Button or close the Lens Shield.
If the mode is cancelled with the Mode Button, the camera will not switch to the
next M.E mode. It will be set to normal mode instead. To set it to the M.E mode
from the Interval Mode, use the Mode Button again to select the M.E mode.
* If the self-timer is used in the Interval Mode, the self-timer will operate first.
Then after that first picture, succeeding pictures will be taken according to the
Interval Mode.
