D Before Shooting
Before shooting a time-lapse movie, select Time zone and date in the
setup menu and make sure that the camera clock is set to the correct
time and date, and then take a test shot at current settings and view
the results. Time-lapse movies are shot using the movie crop; to check
the composition, tap the X button in the Time-lapse movie display (to
return to the Time-lapse movie display, tap the W button). For
consistent coloration, choose a white balance setting other than
4 (auto) or D (natural light auto).
To ensure that shooting is not interrupted, be sure the camera battery
is fully charged. If in doubt, charge the battery before use.
