Can you set a shutter delay? Some of these cameras have a delay so you
can press the button and run around to be in the shot.


PS. Looked up the specs for this camera. It looks like you can set a delay
of ten seconds.


Yes indeed, but I doubt that would work along with the mirror lock. An
alternative to the remote control would be to use a laptop connected to it
and drive the camera remotely that way of course.
