Self-timer
A self-timer is a device on a camera that gives a delay between pressing the shutter release and the shutter's activating (releasing). It is most commonly used to allow the photographer to take a photo of themselves (often with a group of other people), hence the name. It is typically used with the camera on a tripod or other stabilising device, providing between 2 to 10 or more seconds delay.
