Start shooting.
Highlight On and press J
(to return to the shooting
menu without starting
time-lapse photography,
highlight Off and press
J).
Time-lapse photography starts after 3 s. The camera takes
photographs at the interval selected in Step 3 for the time
selected in Step 4. The memory card access lamp lights while
each shot is recorded; note that because shutter speed and
the time needed to record the image to the memory card may
vary from shot to shot, the interval between a shot being
recorded and the start of the next shot may vary. Shooting
will not begin if a time-lapse movie can not be recorded at
current settings (for example, if the memory card is full, the
interval or shooting time is zero, or the interval is longer than
the shooting time).
When complete, time-lapse movies are recorded to the
memory card selected for Movie settings > Destination
(
0 70).
