Putting yourself in the picture or video

Use the Self-Timer to create a 2- or 10-second delay between the time you press the Shutter button and the time the picture or video is taken.

  1. Place the camera on a flat surface or tripod.

  2. Select the desired Still or Video mode.

  3. Press the Menu button.

  4. Move the Joystick to highlight Self-Timer , then press the OK button.

  5. Move the Joystick to highlight 10 seconds (so you have time to get into the scene) or 2 seconds (for a steady, auto-shutter release on a tripod), then press the OK button.

  6. Compose the scene. Then press the Shutter button halfway and hold to set the exposure and focus, then press completely down . Quickly position yourself in the scene.

    The Self-Timer light on the front of the camera blinks slowly for 8 seconds (then quickly for 2 seconds) before the picture/video is taken.

    The Self-Timer turns off after you take the picture/video or if you change modes.

  1. NOTE: The default Video Length is Continuous. The video will stop when you press the Shutter button or when no storage space remains. To change the video length, see . To turn off the Self-Timer camera sounds, see .
