[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 167823, member: 12496"] I figured it out... :) I have a D800, but did not realize it had that C3 menu for the self-timer. It does work. C3 specifies number of shots and the duration between them, for use by the self-timer. But for that to come into play, you have to actually use the self-timer mode, turning it on with the mode wheel on the left top of the camera (D800 manual page 106, hold release, and turn wheel to timer position). That works fine. Then the shutter button delays the time on the self-timer, and then it runs off all the exposures and intervals in C3. Flash works perfectly on each one. But if you don't turn Self-Timer mode On, then the shutter button only takes one picture (as usual, since it is not using the Self timer then, if the Self-timer is not on). [/QUOTE]
