The beeper will sound, the self-timer
lamp will blink, and the shot will
be
taken about 10 sec. later. During the
first 8 sec., the beeper beeps slowly
and the lamp blinks slowly. Then
during the final 2 sec., the beeper
beeps faster and the lamp stays
lit.

LCD panel counts down the seconds
until the picture
is
taken.

start the self-timer. Doing so will throw off the focus.

When using the self-timer to shoot only yourself, use focus lock (p.79) for
an object at about the same distance as where you will be.
You
can also silence the beeper.
