Time-Lapse Movies
A Before Shooting
Time-lapse movies are shot using the movie crop; before shooting a
time-lapse movie, take a test shot at current settings and view the
results in the monitor.
For consistent coloration, choose a white
balance setting other than auto (0 140).
Use of a tripod is recommended.
Mount the camera on a tripod before
shooting begins.
To ensure that shooting is not interrupted, use an
optional AC adapter and power connector or a fully-charged battery.
To prevent light entering via the viewfinder interfering with
photographs and exposure, cover the viewfinder with your hand or
other object or attach the optional viewfinder eyepiece cap (0 80).
