Adjust self-timer to your needs

OM-D cameras do have a predefined self-timer of 2 or 12 sec. In most cases, this is more than enough, but in some situations, you might like to adjust the shutter release delay by yourself. Therefore OM-D cameras offer the possibility to adjust self-timer to your needs.
