Before creating a motion picture with [Stop Motion Animation]
With [Stop Motion Animation], you can make a motion picture in which objects appear to
be moving by making a recording each time you move a doll, etc, in small increments,
and then splicing the recordings together.
• With this unit, pictures of 1 to 60 frames have to be taken per second of a motion picture.
• For smoother motion, record movement in as small increments as possible, and set the frame
rate per second (frame rate) to a large value.
