Recording mode:
You can preset the recording start time, the recording interval, and the number of

landscape scenes, observation of the gradual changes in animals/plants etc., and other
applications from a fixed point. The pictures are recorded as a single group picture (→160).
When [Time Lapse Video] in the [Playback] menu is used, you can create a motion
picture. (→180)
• We recommend using a fully charged battery.
• When the power is supplied from an electrical outlet using the supplied AC
adaptor, [Time Lapse Shot] is disabled.
• Complete the date and time settings in advance. (→28)
• Pictures taken using [Time Lapse Shot] cannot be recorded in the built-in
