operation with the blinking of self-

j Using the Self-timer
The <l> enables you to shoot while not touching the camera mounted
on a tripod. This prevents camera vibration blur when you shoot still lifes
or long exposures.
After taking self-timer shots, playing back the image (p.344) to check
focus and exposure is recommended.
When using the self-timer to shoot yourself, use focus lock (p.89) on an
object at the same distance as where you will stand.
Even if [z3: Beep] is set to [Enable], there will be no beeping during
the self-timer.
To cancel the self-timer, set the power switch to <2>.
If you do not look through the viewfinder when you press the shutter button,
close the eyepiece shutter before shooting (p.258). If stray light enters the
viewfinder when the picture is taken, it may throw off the exposure.
