The result is a smooth time-lapse video. Examples: • Record at 15fps for 1 minute → results in a 30-second time-lapse • Record at 10fps for 1 minute → results in a 20-second time-lapse Benefits: Recording long videos can quickly fill up storage and cause recordings to stop. This method saves both space and time compared to capturing long videos and speeding them up later. Usage ideas: - Record your road trips - Capture party moments - Film flowers blooming - Record beautiful landscapes - Record drives as proof in case of accidents Tips: • Dim the screen during recording to save battery • Pinch out to use the ultra-wide lens and capture more of the surroundings Best for capturing changes over 1–2 hours, e.g. flower blooming, sunset, sunrise, insect activity, etc. Thanks for your support!
