Time for recording on the storage media (a video clip of Time Lapse REC)

•This function is shut off after being used one time.

•60 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 set for. For example, if you set the interval to "30 Sec," Time Lapse Recording should be set for at least 30 minutes to record a minimum video length of 1 second (60 images).

•Once the Time Lapse REC ﬁnishes recording for its total recording time, it switches to standby mode.

•Press the Recording start/stop () button if you want to stop the Time Lapse REC.

•Audio is not recorded during Time Lapse Recording.

•When a video recording ﬁlls up 3.5GB of storage media, a new recording ﬁle is automatically started at that point.

•When the battery is discharged during Time Lapse REC, it saves the recording up to that point and switches to standby mode. After a while, it displays a warning message, then turns off automatically.

•When memory runs out while performing Time Lapse REC, the camcorder switches to standby mode after saving what was recorded so far.

•We recommend using the AC power adaptor when using the Time Lapse REC function.

•When a time lapse recording starts, the "Time Lapse Recording" message blinks on the screen and it appears that the screen has stopped. This is a normal operation; do not remove the power source or memory card from the camcorder.
