tinue at the selected interval until all
the shots have been taken (one shot is
taken at each interval). Note that the
pause following the recording of each
shot varies with shutter speed and the time needed to record
the image, with the result that photographs may not be
recorded at the selected interval. Photos may also not be
recorded if the shutter can not be released (for example,
because the camera is unable to focus).
