MIOPS MOBILE Remote User Manual
g. Basic Timelapse
The Basic Timelapse mode offers to take time lapse pictures automatically without
changing the exposure. It has two parameters; Interval and Frame. The Interval
parameter defines the duration between each frame. The Interval can have a value
from 13 milliseconds up to 100 hours. The Frame parameter defines how many
pictures are to be taken. You can set the frame number up to 99999. If you set the
frame number to zero, this will mean that the time lapse will continue until you stop
it. The frame number will be shown as unlimited.
The Basic Timelapse mode does not offer any control over the exposure. The
exposure settings of your camera will be valid. If you keep your camera in BULB
mode, the shutter will stay open for the value of the pulse length.
Once you start the time lapse, you can see the
progress on two counters at the bottom of the
screen. The counter on the left will show the
interval status. When the circle completes, the
interval period is over and the next picture will be
take. On the right, you will see another counter
which shows the number of the pictures already
taken. With each frame, the counter will be
increased by 1.
Please note that, if the exposure setting of your
camera is greater than the interval value, the
time lapse process will not function properly. The
exposure of your camera must be greater than
the interval value. Otherwise the number of the
taken pictures will be less than shown on the
screen.
h. Long Exposure Timelapse
The Long Exposure Timelapse adds a third parameter to the Basic Timelapse mode
and it is the Exposure. In this mode, you can define a custom exposure for the
timelapse pictures, using the exposure parameter. You can set a custom exposure up
to 100 hours in milliseconds.
