NOTE If you have set Self-Timer to On or On - 2 shots in the Capture menu (see page 38), the camera will start recording 10 seconds after you press the Video button. However, with the On - 2 shots setting, the camera only records one video clip. The camera automatically stops recording when the maximum video clip length of approximately 2 minutes is reached, or the memory card is full, whichever comes first. After recording has stopped, the first frame of the video clip and Processing... appear on the Image Display. While it is processing, you can delete the video clip by pressing the OK button. You can use Playback to review the video clips you have taken. See Using playback on page 49. Taking self-timer pictures You can also take still pictures using the Self-Timer settings in the Capture menu. 1 Set Self-Timer to either On or On - 2 shots in the Capture menu.

The camera measures and then locks the focus and exposure. The camera will hold these settings for the 10 seconds until it takes the picture. NOTE If you immediately press the Shutter button all the way down instead, the camera locks focus and exposure just before the end of the 10-second countdown. This is useful when one or more subjects will be entering the picture during the 10-second countdown period. Chapter 2: Taking pictures and recording video clips 25
