The camera automatically takes photos at selected intervals to
create a silent time-lapse movie.
Selecting Time-lapse movie displays the options below.
• Start: Start time-lapse recording. Shooting starts after about 3s
and continues at the selected interval for the selected shooting
time.
• Interval: Choose the interval between shots in minutes and
seconds.
• Shooting time: Choose how long the camera will continue to take
pictures (hours and minutes).
• Exposure smoothing: Selecting On smooths abrupt changes in
exposure in modes other than M (note that exposure
smoothing only takes effect in mode M if auto ISO sensitivity
control is on). Large changes in subject brightness during
shooting may result in apparent variations in exposure, in
which case it may be necessary to shorten the interval
between shots.
• Silent photography: Select On to silence the shutter during
shooting.
• Frame size/frame rate: Choose the frame size and rate for the final
movie.
• Interval priority: Select On to ensure that frames shot in modes P
and A are taken at the chosen interval, Off to ensure that
photos are correctly exposed. If On is selected, choose a focus
mode of MF or AF-C and check that the minimum shutter speed
chosen for ISO sensitivity settings> Auto ISO sensitivity
control in the photo shooting menu is faster than the interval.
If AF-C is selected for focus mode, check that Release is chosen
for Custom Setting a1(AF-C priority selection).
