• When [Save Interim Images] is set to [Unblended] or

there for each interval shooting.

[Interval]. When the shutter speed is longer than the interval
set in [Interval], the shooting result varies depending on the
[Fixed Time Release] setting.
• When [Fixed Time Release] is set to [On], [Minimum] is not
available for [Interval]. If [Interval] is set to [Minimum], the
setting changes to [1sec.].

When the Shutter Speed Is Longer than the
Interval Set in [Interval]
On
Some shutter releases are skipped.
Example) When [Interval] is set to 2 seconds,
and the shutter speed is set to 3 seconds:
The first exposure has not yet finished at the
time the second exposure is supposed to be
started (2 seconds after shooting has
started), and so the second image is not
taken. (Shooting ends before the images
specified in [Number of Shots] are taken.)
Off
No shutter releases are skipped.
Example) When [Interval] is set to 2 seconds,
and the shutter speed is set to 3 seconds:
The second exposure does not start even 2
seconds after shooting has started, and
starts after the first exposure finishes.
(Shooting ends after the images specified in
[Number of Shots] are taken.)
