Using self-timer

The self-timer trips the shutter at any time delay trom 3 to 10 seconds. It has

white indicator dots for 3-, 6- and ]O-second delay and can be set either before

or after the shutter is wound. To set the self-timer, turn the lever on the front of

the camera body downward for the desired delay. The timer is actuated by its

own release button, located beneath the end of the lever in its uncocked

position. The lever can be turned back after setting the timer, to cover the

release button and prevent accidental triggering. lf you decide not to use the

self-timer after it has already been

cocked, use the shutter release button to

make the exposure. Then shut off the

self-timer before advancing the film for

the next exposure by pressing the release

button. This way you can avoid wasted

exposures.

It is also helpful for minimizing camera

shake at slow shutter speeds with the

camera hand-held or tripod-mounted.
