Recording Time-lapse Movies
o
If the card does not have enough free space to record the set number of shots,
[Playback time] will be displayed in red.
Although the camera can continue
shooting, the shooting will stop when the card becomes full.
o
If the movie fi le size exceeds 4 GB with the [No. of shots] settings and the
card is not formatted in exF
AT (
=
512), [Playback time]
will be displayed
in red. If you keep shooting in this condition and the movie fi le size reaches 4
GB, the time-lapse movie recording will stop.
o
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
intense artifi
cial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera’s internal components.

[T
ime-lapse movie] cannot be set to an option other than [Disable] when the
camera is connected to a computer with the interface cable, or when an HDMI
cable is connected.

If the shutter speed is 1/30 sec. or slower, the exposure of the movie may not
be displayed properly (may diff

may cause the image to be out of focus, the exposure to change, or the lens
aberration correction not to function properly.

ickering light, noticeable image
fl
ickering, horizontal stripes (noise), or irregular exposures may be recorded.

may look diff
erent from the resulting movie. (For example, there may be
inconsistent brightness from fl ickering light sources, or noise from a high ISO
speed.)

splayed
during shooting may look diff
erent from what is actually recorded in the movie.
In such cases, the [
g

If you move the camera from left to right (panning) or shoot a moving subject
during time-lapse movie recording, the image may look extremely distorted.
