Note on the self-timer shooting
• If you start the self-timer while standing In
front of the camera's front, the subject may
not be in focus.
• To cancel the self-timer at any time after it's
been activated, push the main switch, (in
such a case, the power will not be turned
off.)
• When you want to use the flash with the
self-timer, make sure the flash has been
charged (the red lamp lights up) before
operating the self-timer. If the battery is ex¬
hausted, the self-timer operation may not
be completed once started. In this case,
replace the battery.
• When the Bulb mode is used with the self-
timer, the shutter speed is automatically
set to approx. 1/2 sec.
