j Using the Self-timer
The <k> 2-sec. self-timer enables you to shoot while not touching the
camera mounted on a tripod. This prevents camera shake while you
shoot still lifes or bulb exposures.
After taking self-timer shots, you should check the image for proper focus
and exposure (p.162).
If you will not look through the viewfinder when you press the shutter
button, attach the eyepiece cover (p.108). If stray light enters the
viewfinder when the picture is taken, it may throw off the exposure.
When using the self-timer to shoot only yourself, use focus lock (p.52) for
an object at about the same distance as where you will be.
To cancel the self-timer after it starts, press the <o> button.
