An example of this function is to record “Say Cheese” as a self-timer sound
so that the camera will replay this sound 2 seconds before the photo is
taken. You could also record cheerful music to bring out the natural smiles
of your subjects, or so they can strike a pose fitting the music. In these
ways you can customize your camera by creating and adding new My
Camera settings.
See the supplied Software Starter Guide for more information on
creating and adding to the My Camera files.
