Number of frames in the interval series.
Frame counter.
RECORDING MODE
The interval mode makes a series of still or moving images over a period of time. Similar to time-
lapse photography, a series of images of a slow moving event can be taken: the blossoming of a
flower, the construction of a building.The built-in flash can be used. Instant playback (p. 98) is dis-
abled.
The parameters of the interval series are set up in the custom 1 section of the recording-mode menu.
Refer to the navigation section on page 78 on how to use the menu.The length of the interval
between frames can be set at 1 – 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, and 60 minutes.The number of images in the
series is set with the frames menu option: 2 – 99 frames.To capture a series of still images or to
make a movie file is selected with the interval-mode option.
Set the drive mode to interval with the function dial (p. 44). After mounting the camera on a tripod,
compose the image so that the subject area falls within the focus frames; the camera sets the focus,
exposure, and white balance, and charges the flash just before each exposure. Continuous AF can
be used. Settings locked with the spot AE lock button are canceled after the first frame (p. 40).To
override the automatic systems, use manual focus (p. 94), manual exposure (p. 52), and preset or
custom white balance (p. 62).
