D Cautions: Interval-Timer Photography • Choose an interval longer than the time needed to take the selected number of shots at the predicted shutter speed. Note that during actual interval-timer photography, the camera must not only take shots at the selected interval but must also have sufficient time to complete the exposures and perform such tasks as processing the photographs. If the interval is too short to take the selected number of photos, the camera may skip to the next interval without shooting. • If the interval is too short, the total number of shots taken may be less than that selected for [Intervals×shots/interval]. • If you are using a flash, choose an interval longer than the time needed for the flash to charge. If the interval is too short, the flash may fire at less than the power needed for full exposure. • If shooting cannot proceed at current settings-for example, if shutter speed is set to "Bulb" or "Time", the [Interval] is [00:00'00"], or the start time is in less than a minute-a warning will be displayed. • If [Time-lapse video] is selected for [Options], the standby timer will not expire during interval-timer photography, regardless of the option selected for Custom Setting c3 [Power off delay] > [Standby timer]. • If [Time-lapse video] is selected for [Options] at a frame size 7680 × 4320, interval-timer photography will not start if: - [DX (24×16)] or [1:1 (24×24)] is selected for [Image area] > [Choose image area] in the photo shooting menu, or - a DX lens is attached.
