This function is disabled after being used one time. To use it again, you must reset it.
30 captured images compose a video of 1 second length. Since the minimum length of a video your
camcorder can save is one second, the interval you set defi nes how long total recording time should
be. For example, if you set the interval to "30 Sec," total recording time should be set to at least 15
minutes to record a minimum video length of 1 second (30 images).
Once the Time Lapse REC fi nishes 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.
If a video recording fi lls up 1.8GB of storage media, a new recording fi le is automatically started at
that point.
If the battery is exhausted during Time Lapse REC, the camcorder saves the recording up to that
point and switches to standby mode. After some time, it displays a warning message, then turns off
automatically.
If memory runs out during a 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, a message of "Time Lapse Recording" blinks on the screen
and it appears as if the screen is stopped. This is normal, Do not remove the power source or
memory card from the camcorder.
