Time-lapse Video Recording
(“Interval Recording” Function)
The interval recording (Interval Rec) function is effective
for shooting objects that move very slowly. As shown in
the following figure, you need to set the recording time for
one recording session (NUMBER OF FRAME) and the
total time consisting of one recording session and the
following interval (INTERVAL TIME).
A pre-lighting function is available. This function
automatically turns on the light before recording starts,
which allows you to record pictures under stable light and
color temperature conditions.
When the recording mode of this unit is set to DVCAM
format, the Interval Rec function is not available.
Making settings before shooting
To record in Interval Rec mode, you need to set the related
items beforehand as follows.
(How to select an item in the menu screen: Turn the
