Taking Timelapse Photos

Use the Timelapse setting to take a series of photos at preset time intervals. You can specify the number of photos
you want the camera to take, as well as the amount of time between photos. It is recommended that you attach the
camera to a tripod, or place it on a firm surface at an appropriate distance and height from the subject, to keep the
camera steady.
It is recommended that you use an AC power adapter for long Timelapse photo sequences. See "Using an AC Power
Adapter (recommended)" on page 29 for more information.
Tip: By default the camera takes 10 photos with 1 minute intervals between photos. If you want to change the
Timelapse settings, see below.
