Kodak EasyShare cameras are compact, hand-held cameras manufactured for casual photographers. Though the cameras are designed to be easy-to-use, that doesn't mean the user cannot take high-quality photographs. Among the features is a self-timer, which allows the photographer to set up the camera and quickly move into the frame so he is a part of the photograph. It can also be a useful tool for people who have a difficult time keeping the camera still when taking pictures. By using the self-timer, the photographer can set the camera on a steady surface, negating any camera shake--and subsequent blurry photographs.
Instructions
1. Press the "menu" button on the back of the camera to bring up a list of options.
2. Highlight the "self timer" option on the list of items, using the "up" and "down" navigation buttons on the camera; press the "OK" button. A new list of options will appear on the screen.
3. Select the timer option you want to use from the list. You can choose between "10 seconds," "2 seconds" and a "2-shot." The latter takes the first picture after two seconds and a second picture eight seconds later.
4. Set your camera in a position that will allow you to get the shot you want. Press the shutter button on the camera to start the timer. The orange light on the front of the camera will start blinking. When the set time is up, the shutter will go off.
