Shoot the time-lapse movie.

Press the shutter button halfway to
check the focus and exposure.

Press the shutter button completely to
start shooting the time-lapse movie.

AF will not work during time-lapse
movie shooting. The exposure setting
for the first shot will be applied to
subsequent shots.

During time-lapse movie shooting,
nothing will be displayed on the LCD
monitor. <N> will blink on the LCD
panel.

Since the electronic shutter is used
for shooting, the reflex mirror and
shutter make no mechanical sound
during time-lapse movie shooting.

When the set number of shots are
taken, the time-lapse movie shooting
will stop and be automatically canceled.

You can play back the shot time-lapse movie with this camera the same

48, “2 days” will be indicated. If three or more days are required, the
number of days will be indicated in 24-hour increments.

Even if the time-lapse movie’s playback time is less than 1 sec., a movie
file will still be created. For [Playback time], “00:00:00” will be displayed.

If the shooting time is long, using DC Coupler DR-E6 (sold separately)
and AC Adapter AC-E6 (sold separately) is recommended.

When shooting in Basic Zone modes, the scene icon for the scene
detected by the camera is displayed on the upper left of the screen (p.260).
