I have a430, and one problem. When I set self-timer to custom settings eg. 10sek./3 shots. Camera make 10sek., then shot, shot, shot.
Should be 10 sek. shot, 10sek. shot, 10sek, shot
I try set factory default. Maybe there is another reset etc. Hard Reset ??

Sorry for my english

Are you sure of your facts? Do not have working knowledge of this camera, but from experience of other types I would say camera is operating correctly. A time lapse setting of 10secs for three exposures seems a bit pointless. You are more likely to have the self timer working with the normal three frame exposure mode.

However the A430 is way beyond the scope of this forum, so I would try and find a forum that specializes in these modern types. Although we may use this camera, I doubt that many of us have bothered to repair one.
