2.5.8 Self-Timer
For time-delayed image capture, you may use the self-timer feature. The self-timer
inserts a ten-second delay after you press the shutter button until the image is actually
captured. This feature is often used when the camera is mounted upon a tripod,
allowing you to get in the image.
To invoke the self-timer, refer to Chapter 3, section 3.1.1.
2.6 Capturing an Image
Now that we’ve gotten through all the details – one last detail. How do you take a
picture? Simple. Turn on the camera to CAM mode and push the shutter button.
Wait a few seconds for processing and you are ready to capture your next image.
Note
: The V2800 is loaded with features and capabilities. There are so many features and menus that
it can become overwhelming at first. Not to worry. The V2800 is setup at the factory with default
settings that allow you to operate the camera right out of the box without making any adjustments at
all. Just insert the batteries, switch to CAM, and begin capturing images by pressing the shutter button
just like a film-based camera. Explore all these advanced features at your leisure, as you become more
familiar with the camera.
