USING SELF-TIMER The self-timer is handy for a group photo including yourself. To set the self-timer, first slide the self-timer lever up as indicated. Then, depress the shutter button, and the self-timer LED will start flickering, accompanied by a beeping sound. About 12 seconds later, the shutter will be released automatically. About two seconds before shutter release, the self-timer will start to flicker and beep at a faster rate. If you want to interrupt the selftimer operation once it has started, return the self-timer lever to the original position. Caution: When "P" in the viewfinder flickers with the shutter button depressed half-way, or when the mode selector is set at B, the self-timer cannot be used. When taking a picture with your eye removed from the viewfinder eyepiece, the light coming through the eyepiece may affect the exposure, resulting in underexposure. Therefore, when using the self-timer, it is advisable to attach the viewfinder cap to the accessory groove in the eyepiece frame. PE PE 31•
