∫ Technique for Self Portrait Mode

• Press the shutter button halfway to focus. The self-timer indicator

lights up when you are brought into focus. Making sure you hold

the camera still, press the shutter button fully to take the picture.

• The subject is not focused when the self-timer indicator is

blinking. Make sure to press the shutter button halfway again to

focus.

• The recorded picture automatically appears on the LCD monitor

for reviewing.

• If the picture is blurry due to the slow shutter speed, we recommend using the 2 second

self-timer.

• The zoom magnification is automatically moved to Wide (1k).

remain until the camera is turned off, the Scene Mode is changed or [REC] Mode or

[PLAYBACK] Mode is selected.
