· Time lapse recording mode is released once recording has been finished. To start another Time Lapse Recording, repeat steps 1-5. · 30 captured images compose a video of 1 second length. Since the minimum length of a video to be saved by your camcorder is one second, the interval defines how long the time lapse recording should be. For example, if you set the interval to "30 Sec, " time lapse recording should be set to at least 30 minutes to record a minimum video length of 2 seconds (60 images). · Once time lapse recording finishes recording for the specified recording time, the camcorder switches to the standby mode. · Press the Recording start/stop button if you want to stop time lapse recording. · Audio is not recorded during time lapse recording. · If a video recording fills up 1. 8GB of storage memory, a new recording file is automatically started at that point. · If the battery charge is exhausted during the time lapse recording, the camcorder saves the recording up to that point and switches to standby mode. After some time, it displays a warning message, then turns off automatically. · If memory runs out during a Time Lapse REC, the camcorder switches to standby mode after saving what was recorded so far. · We recommend using the AC power adaptor for a time lapse recording.
