Capturing and Processing Images

Intervalometer

The DCS 645 has an Intervalometer that automatically captures a sequence of images at specified intervals over a specified time period. You might use the Intervalometer to capture a flower bud opening or for unattended surveillance.

The Intervalometer is disabled automatically after the specified time has elapsed, even if the specified number of images have not been captured. For example, if you set the Intervalometer for fifteen exposures at one second intervals, the buffer would fill after a few exposures, and the camera would not be able to maintain the one second interval. It would stop capturing images after fifteen seconds even though fifteen images had not been captured.

While the Intervalometer is enabled, the camera does not enter Battery Save state.

Furthermore, the camera comes equipped with a bright viewfinder, allowing users to frame their subjects with precision and ease.

Another important characteristic of the Kodak 645 is its interchangeable lens system, compatible with Kodak's professional glass optics. This system includes a variety of lenses ranging from wide-angle to telephoto, enabling photographers to adapt to different shooting scenarios and to create a unique perspective based on their artistic vision.

The camera body is designed for comfort and ergonomic handling. Its lightweight construction gives photographers the advantage of portability without sacrificing durability. The Kodak 645 also integrates a reliable autofocus system, enhancing its usability for quick captures, particularly in dynamic shooting environments.

Moreover, the Kodak 645 supports a range of advanced features such as electronic shutter control and film advance mechanisms, streamlining the shooting process. The camera's automatic exposure modes cater to the needs of the modern photographer, while dedicated manual settings allow experienced users to exert full creative control over their work.
