INTERVAL SHOOTING Depress the AUTO Drive button • until the (INT) IEXOP, indication ;INT; appears on the LCD panel. This mode lets you capture the subject at intervals of 10 sec. to 60 minutes, making it ideal to record a sequence of events over a period of time - the blossoming of a flower, for in- stance. Once you set this mode, it automati- cally takes pictures for you unattended. It is ideal for observational photography of ani- mals, insects or plants, etc. The selectable shooting intervals are 10, 20, 30, 40, 50; 60 seconds and 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 minutes. (example: 10S=10 sec., 60M=60 min.) How to set the shooting interval To select the shooting interval, move the zooming lever while depressing the drive button until the required interval time appears on the LCD panel. The preset interval time is 60 sec. Moving the zooming lever fully to the right or the left will bring on continuous digit advance. Holding the zooming lever at (4) advances the digit up to the 60 min. setting. Holding the zooming lever at (44 4) counts the digit down to the 10 sec. setting. After the selection, depress the shutter release button; the first frame will be exposed 3 seconds later. Then, the rest of the film will be automatically exposed according to the interval time selected. * When in the Interval Shooting mode, the interval shooting symbol mark (INT) blinks on the LCD panel and the remaining time of the interval is also displayed. * To cancel the Interval Shooting mode after it has been activated, depress the main switch. In this instance, the power is not switched off. * The exposure counter indication appears on the LCD panel when the shutter release button is depressed halfway down. * The focal length is displayed on the LCD panel when the zooming lever is moved to the right or the left. 25
