Nikon FM10 - Self-Timer; Flash Photography

2. This setting is useful when an exposure longer
than one second is required, such as in landscape
photography at night Or it can be used for the
special effect photography by employing the flash
test button together with very low light conditions.
3. Be sure to use a tripod and/or cable release when
using this long time shutter speed setting.
Note: We recommend that you remove the Batteries
from the camera at this setting to avoid wasting
the batteries.

down the self-timer lever (7) counterclockwise.
Now the seif-timer is ready to use.
2. Press the shutter release button (2) and the
self-timer operates to release the shutter in
approximately 10 seconds later.

to cancel it manually. So operate it only when
needed.

include yourself in a picture, or, you can use it
in order to prevent camera shake in shutter
