The Art Time Lapse function records image frames at a predefined

Art Time Lapse is useful for filming the following subjects:
Blooming flowers

During Art Time Lapse recording, the Super C.Nite function does not work.
Art Time Lapse recording is released once recording has been finished. To start another Art Time Lapse mode, repeat steps 1 to 7.
30 captured images compose a video of 1 second length. Since the minimum length of a video that your camcorder can save is one second, the interval
defines the total minimum recording time for the Art Time Lapse mode. For example, if you set the interval to 5 Sec, you need to set the recording time for
the Art Time Lapse mode to at least 3 minutes to record a minimum video length of 1 second (30 images).
The Art Time lapse function lets the camcorder record up to 72 hours until you stop recording or turn the camcorder’s power off.
You cannot pause recording during Time lapse recording.
Audio is not recorded during Art Time Lapse recording.
The maximum video file size is 1.8GB. When a video file exceeds 1.8GB, a new video file is created automatically.
We recommend using the power adaptor instead of the battery for Art Time Lapse.
If the battery charge is exhausted during Art Time Lapse recording, the camcorder saves recording up to that point and switches to standby mode. After a
while, it displays a warning message, and then turns off automatically.
If the storage media becomes full during Art Time Lapse recording, the camcorder switches to the standby mode after saving the recording up to the
maximum memory available.
