Putting Yourself in the Picture

There might be times when you want everyone, including yourself, to be in the picture. For these occasions, use the Self-Timer feature to create a 10-second delay between the time you press the SHUTTER button and the time the picture is taken.

  1. Set the Mode dial to Capture.

  2. Slide the POWER switch to the right to turn on the camera.

  3. Press the SELF-TIMER button.

    The Self-timer icon appears in the Status Display.

    If you want to cancel self-timer before the picture is taken, press the SELF-TIMER button again or turn off the camera.

  4. Place the camera on a flat, steady surface or tripod.

  5. Frame your subject in the viewfinder and press the SHUTTER button.

    The red Self-Timer light, located on the front of the camera, turns on and stays lit for 8 seconds, then flashes for 2 additional seconds just before the picture is taken.

    The Self-Timer turns off when the picture is taken.
