does this camera have an automatic timer? I like this camera but I don't think I'd buy a camera that didn't have that feature. I like to be in the photos as well as take them :)

Yes it has a self-timer. In fact, you can get to it directly by tapping down on the up-down stick

No, to do time lapse photography you will need to purchase a remote timer which is sold separately as canon or third party brand model.

Yes, it does with three different settings on how long you want the camera to wait until the picture is taken. I have used this feature and it worked great.

Yes, this camera has a self timer. You can do this in the camera by exiting the easy mode, and pressing the button at a 9 O'clock position.

Depending on how you set it on your settings, it can be delayed for as long as you wished, but Sony has it in the box by default; so you will need to configure your settings. I have mine for 1 sec so I can see it quickly and depending on the circumstances, I will have it off if it is necessary, others, I would move it to 3 to 5 seconds to study it if any adjustments is necessary and this gives me a chance to delete this "image" right on the spot if it didn't turn out the way it was supposed to without having to go to the menu and review everything there. Everyone is different, so take your time and configure your Sony Camera settings the way you would like for it to be - but note: Some settings in some areas, are not applicable while others it would be available so it pays to take your time to configure everything everywhere.

Hello D. Hall have you already bought the camera?? I did and I am not very happy with it. the pictures it takes in the auto mode are not what I was waiting.. and the pictures with the movement mode.. are not clear enough... so tell me please if you get it and if it is working fine.

Yes. The camera has a "self timer" option. When composing your picture, pressing the Function button brings up the timer option where you can select the default 10 second delay, or choose an alternate time delay. Then press the shutter button and the camera will flash a warning light (and beep), increasing in speed until the shutter is released and the picture is taken.

Most all modern cameras have a timer. Set it for 5-10 seconds, position the camera with the extender and hold it still. Takes some practice but fairly easy after a few shots.

Yes, simply hold down the button on the controller for about 1-2 seconds and let go, but with mine I've notice that it doesn't stay locked for long especially with long exposer time lapse photos, for example: 30 second exposer over a period of an hour, it only took about 3-4 photos every time, I eventually had to babysit the shutter release and my camera to make sure it was actually taking the photos... It could be just mine that's defective... Still works great though!

Very easy to use. Basically in laymans terms it has auto, half auto and fully manual settings. I bought this camera and I love it. Make sure you get a good memory card.

Hi there, sorry for the late response but we just started using this. The shutter delay is basically non-existent, it snaps as soon as the button is pushed which is awesome! Highly recommend!

I tried my camera right before answering your question. If there is decent light, it auto focuses, but sometimes it takes a little while. You can zoom as you film, but it focuses faster and with more clarity when using the lower optical zoom range. I still love this camera... However, if you decide to buy it, make sure you get the fastest memory card for HD digital cameras (it only take the tiny ones), otherwise it is too slow taking pictures.

I don't have the camera in front of me right now, but I know you can chose aperature or shutter priority. You can also do a +-2 on exposure. I don't believe you can have full manual exposure control.

Yes, there's a button on the back of the camera with a clock face inscribed on it. Push this button and a menu will appear on the screen asking if you want a 2 or a 10 second delay. Works great.

You can put your camera on the continuous shooting mode and as long as you depress the button, it will continue to shoot. I do not think you can set the self timer to automatically do the same.

There is a lag time. Not exactly sure how long... Maybe 1-2 seconds. When I first got the camera I hated the lag time, but I would say that I am used to it now. I wouldn't let the lag time deter you from purchasing this camera. It is a great product.

We regret to inform you this camera doesn't have an optional remote shutter but does have a self timer mode. Full instructions for the self timer can be found in the below link. ftp://ftp.panasonic.com/camera/dmcts25/dmc-ts25_en_advanced_om.pdf#page=59
