INTERVAL SHOOTING
Interval shooting is a special shooting feature where the digital disk camera captures images in
set intervals. There are two types of interval shooting: still image interval shooting captures still
images in set intervals and video clip interval shooting captures images in set intervals that will
then become one video clip (see page 101).
With interval shooting, you can effectively capture the blooming of a flower blooming or other
such extremely slow movement.
Still image interval shooting
Example:
Capturing five images in ten-minute intervals.

NOTE
œ By fixing the settings for still image interval shooting, the images of the slow changes in the
subject over time are captured more accurately. If interval shooting is performed with the digital
disk camera set to autofocus, program AE, and auto white balance, then each image may be
captured with slightly different settings making each image slightly different. To avoid this, set
AE lock (see page 92) and white balance lock (see page 96) and set the focus manually.
œ With still image interval shooting, you can use the voice memo (see page 78) and self-timer
(see page 80) functions; you cannot use the flash (see page 76).
