To not play with the camera.....with one exception (the EF) I have accidently set the delay timer on every camera I've owned wile literally fiddling with the camera for no other reason but to do so.


So to un set it....Here is my cat Mystery...staring off into space

Un like my AE-1 the timer can not be turned off, It must be spent so to speak. So yeah I took a picture of what was sitting infront of the camera delayed ten seconds, that way I would not forget about it and go to take a shot and find my self standing there holding the thing for that time and looking like a fool.

thats a bummer that you have to take a picture to turn off the timer. many times ive gone to take a picture and looked like a fool trying to figure out why it wasnt working only to turn it around and snap a shot of my face last second. lol.
