This is a good tip... I'll have to try it. With my crappy little camera I need all the tips I can get

I used to do that trick with my old 35mm. To show what a complete tool that I am though, I can't find out how to do it with my current digital camera (mine is the D70s). I tried googling the info but all I could find was wireless remote shutter controllers.

Tony, there is a button by the top LCD to change the shutter settings on the camera. One of the settings is a timer, but to set the timer duration you have to go into the shooting menu (i think).
