Use Time-lapse to Condense Hours into Minutes

You can use time-lapse to capture images over a long period of time and condense them into a short

video, allowing you to view owers blooming, the ebb and ow of city trafc, and the formation of

clouds during the day and the movement of stars in the night sky.

l Avoid recording time-lapse for too long as it will use up your battery power and storage space.

l Use a sturdy tripod to reduce device movement during time-lapse recording.

Before starting the time-lapse, ensure that the scene is well lit and the camera is in focus. Position the

camera carefully to avoid capturing irrelevant background objects.

Open Camera. Swipe right on the screen, and then touch Time-lapse. Touch to start

recording. Touch to nish recording.

Go to Gallery to play your time-lapse video.
