Interval Timer Photography

The camera is equipped to take photographs automatically at
preset intervals.

Before Shooting
Select a release mode other than self-timer (E) when using the interval
timer. Before beginning interval timer photography, take a test shot at
current settings and view the results in the monitor. Once settings have
been adjusted to your satisfaction, close the viewfinder eyepiece
shutter to prevent light entering via the viewfinder interfering with
photographs and exposure (0 120).
Before choosing a starting time, select Time zone and date in the setup
menu and make sure that the camera clock is set to the correct time and
date (0 28).
Use of a tripod is recommended. Mount the camera on a tripod before
shooting begins. To ensure that shooting is not interrupted, be sure the
camera battery is fully charged. If in doubt, charge the battery before
use or use an AC adapter and power connector (available separately).
