USING THE SELF TIMER
If you want to include yourself in the picture, mount the camera on a tripod and trip the shutter with the aid of
the self-timer.
1. First, focus the lens and set exposure.
2. Set the self-timer by pushing the Self-Timer Lever all the way down. (The self-timer can be set either before
or after advancing the film.)
3. Make sure the film has been wound and depress the Shutter Release Button. The self-timer will start and trip
e shutter in about 10 seconds.
If you are taking indoor or nighttime pictures, use a compact Yashica CS-202 Auto flash. It will give you
beautiful flash pictures.
