• Time Lapse Recording mode is released once recording has been finished. To start another Time Lapse Recording, repeat steps 1 to 6 on the previous page.

25 captured images comprise a video 1 second long. Since the minimum length of a video that your camcorder can save is one second, the interval defines the total minimum recording time for the Time Lapse Recording. For example, if you set the interval to “30 Sec,” you need to set the recording time for the Time Lapse Recording to at least 13 minutes to record a minimum video length of 1 second (25 images).

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.

If the battery charge is exhausted during the Time Lapse recording, the camcorder saves recording up to that point and switches to standby mode. After a while, it displays a warning message, then turns off automatically.

If the storage media becomes full during Time Lapse Recording, the camcorder switches to the standby mode after saving the recording up to to the maximum memory available.

We recommend using the AC power adaptor for a Time Lapse Recording instead of the battery.

When a time lapse recording starts, the “Time Lapse Recording” message blinks on the screen and it appears as if the screen has stopped. This is normal

64operation. Do not remove the power source or memory card from the camcorder.
