It may be useful if using the camera for extended periods of time to connect it to a
power source (e.g. power bank).
Note: Whilst in this mode the camera will stop recording after no movement is
detected. Switch Motion Detection to OFF if you would like to capture footage
normally.
Tip: This mode works best when the camera is locked in position (e.g. on a tripod).
Time lapse
Time-lapse is a creative technique that records footage at a very low frame rate.
Playing it back at a higher frame rate shows a rapid change over time. This
technique is most effective when recording scenes or objects which have a slow
state of change, e.g. a sunset or a flower blossoming.
This option captures video at specified intervals without audio ready for playback
and sharing.
Time lapse can be set to the following intervals 1/2/5/10/30/60 seconds.
The following chart is useful for determining the amount of time required for 1min of
footage at 30fps:
Interval
Recording Time
1
30 mins
2
1 hour
5
2.5 hours
10
5 hours
30
15 hours
60
30 hours
Note: Time lapse Video is only available when shooting at 30FPS. If the FPS is
higher than 30fps the option will be inactive/disabled.
Tip: The camera may be plugged into a power bank/power source to extend the
battery life and allow you to shoot for extended periods of time. This is very useful
for recording long time lapses.
The greater the interval the more dramatic the effect.
