You can use time lapse to record movements, changes, or events that take place over a long period of time. Video Time lapse videos play at 30 frames per second. The length of the video depends on the amount of time between video frames. For example, if frames are recorded at a one-second interval, each second of video covers 30 seconds of real time. If frames are recorded at a 60-second interval, each second of video covers 30 minutes of real time. 1 Select MODE > SETUP > VIDEO > Mode > Time Lapse. 2 Select a time interval. 3 For the best results, mount the device so that it will not move while recording. 4 Record a video. Recording a Video Loop Loop mode allows you to record video continuously but save only the most recent video footage. You can select the number of minutes of video to save.
