The first shot will be taken at the specified starting time, or after about three seconds if Now was selected for Choose start time in Step 2. The self-timer lamp blinks while shooting is in progress; shooting will continue at the selected interval until all shots have been taken. Note that because shutter speed and the time needed to record the image to the memory card may vary from shot to shot, the interval between a shot being recorded and the start of the next shot may vary. D Before Shooting Before beginning interval timer photography, take a test shot at current settings and view the results in the monitor. To ensure that shooting starts at the desired time, check that the camera clock is correctly set (0 20). Settings can not be changed while interval timer photography is in progress. z Use of a tripod is recommended. Mount the camera on a tripod before shooting begins. To ensure that shooting is not interrupted, be sure the EN-EL9a battery is fully charged or use an optional EH-5a AC adapter and EP-5 power connector. D Bracketing Bracketing can not be used with interval timer shooting. A Cover the Viewfinder Before starting the interval timer, remove the rubber eyecup (q) and insert the supplied DK-5 eyepiece cap as shown (w). This q prevents light entering via the viewfinder interfering with exposure. Hold the camera firmly when removing the eyepiece cup. DK-5 eyepiece cap w A Release Mode Regardless of the mode selected, the camera automatically takes one photograph at each interval; the self-timer and remote control can not be used. Camera noise is reduced in quiet shutter-release mode. A Interrupting Interval Timer Shooting To interrupt interval timer shooting, turn the camera off or rotate the mode dial to another position.
