Using Time-Lapse Photography (continued)

Actual time interval

The time interval set in the menu is the time when the next picture will be taken after the camera enters the sleep mode, so there is some additional time lapse until the camera enters the sleep mode before the time interval actually takes effect. The actual time is calculated with the following operation times:

Exposure time (determined by the shutter speed)

Time required to save the picture on the card (determined by the record mode. A few ~ some ten seconds)

Time to display the time lapse information (about 5 seconds)

Time to recharge the flash (when flash is used. About 7 seconds)

(The time interval between first shot and the second shot is significantly longer. However, after the second shot, the length of the time intervals conform with the description above.)

Viewing pictures during time lapse photography

If you need to view pictures taken in the time lapse mode, release the camera from the time lapse mode temporarily.

Note

Changing a setting while the camera is in the time lapse mode could release the camera from the time lapse mode, and some settings cannot be changed with the camera in the time lapse mode. (If you need to change a setting, temporarily release the camera from the time lapse mode.)

Time-lapse operation stops if batteries go dead. We recommend that you connect the optional AC adapter or use the optional lithium polymer battery during time-lapse sessions.

Set up the camera indoors where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight for a long period, and use a tripod to fix it in position. If the camera is exposed to direct sunlight for a long period, the light striking the lens could damage the internal CCD.

Avoid setting up the camera to shoot for 24 hours or so under adverse conditions.

Keep in mind that that CCD may be damaged if the sun moves into a position where it shines directly into the lens for a long time. If you are setting up a lengthy outdoor time-lapse sequence, be very sure that you position the camera so that the sun will not enter the scene.

Setting up a long shooting session with short time intervals between shots could cause the flash unit to deteriorate, and such damage to the camera may not be covered by the warranty, so use the camera carefully.
