The Time Lapse Recording function records image frames at the predefined interval over the total recording time to produce a time-lapse video.

For example, the Time Lapse Recording is useful for filming in the following situations:

• Time lapse recording mode is released once recording has been finished. To start another Time Lapse Recording, repeat steps 1-5.

25 captured images compose a video of 1 second length. Since the minimum length of a video to be saved by your camcorder is one second, the interval defines how long the time lapse recording should be taken. For example, if you set the interval to “30 Sec,” time lapse recording should be taken for at least 30 minutes to record a minimum video length of 2 seconds (50 images).

Once the time lapse recording finishes recording for its total recording time, it switches to the standby mode.

Press the Recording start/stop button if you want to stop the time lapse recording.

Audio is not recorded during time lapse recording.

When a video recording fills up 1.8GB of storage memory, a new recording file is automatically started at that point.

When the battery charge was exhausted during the time lapse recording, it saves recording up to that point and switches to standby mode. After a while, it displays a warning message, then turns off automatically.

When the memory space of the storage media is insufficient during the time lapse recording, it switches to the standby mode after saving the recording up to its maximum.
