A Calculating the Length of the Final Movie
The total number of frames in the final
movie can be calculated by dividing the
shooting time by the interval and rounding
up.
The length of the final movie can then
be calculated by dividing the number of
shots by the frame rate selected for Frame
size/frame rate in the shooting menu
(0 168).
A 48 frame movie recorded at
1920 × 1080; 24p, for example, will be
about two seconds long.
The maximum
length for time-lapse movies is 20 minutes.
