Time-Lapse Movie G button ➜ C (photo shooting menu) The camera automatically takes photos at selected intervals to create a silent time-lapse movie. Selecting Time-lapse movie displays the options below. • Start: Start time-lapse recording. Shooting starts after about 3 s and continues at the selected interval for the selected shooting time. • Interval: Choose the interval between shots in minutes and seconds. • Shooting time: Choose how long the camera will continue to take pictures (hours and minutes). • Exposure smoothing: Selecting On smooths abrupt changes in exposure in modes other than M (note that exposure smoothing only takes effect in mode M if auto ISO sensitivity control is on). Large changes in subject brightness during shooting may result in apparent variations in exposure, in which case it may be necessary to shorten the interval between shots. • Silent photography: Select On to silence the shutter during shooting. • Frame size/frame rate: Choose the frame size and rate for the final movie. • Interval priority: Select On to ensure that frames shot in modes P and A are taken at the chosen interval, Off to ensure that photos are correctly exposed. If On is selected, choose a focus mode of MF or AF-C and check that the minimum shutter speed chosen for ISO sensitivity settings > Auto ISO sensitivity control in the photo shooting menu is faster than the interval. If AF-C is selected for focus mode, check that Release is chosen for Custom Setting a1(AF-C priority selection). Menu Guide > C The Photo Shooting Menu 249
