How does Nikon Z6 take time-lapse photography?

Time-lapse photography operation method:

First of all, the maximum number of cards that can be recorded is limited. If the shooting delay is determined, some adjustments can be made for the delay: for example, output 12bit to compress raw to release space as much as possible (shooting scenes with good light) or 12bit to lossless compress raw (involving day to night and night to day). If one card can shoot 3000 cards, then you want to record 90 minutes of gold for one hour.

Then 30 beats per minute is a more appropriate setting (the total is 2700), that is, one shot every 2 seconds. Shorten the shooting interval as much as possible under the premise of capacity, because this can leave room for variable speed when editing.

Changing the speed and rhythm of the soundtrack can improve the quality of the whole delayed work. If there is not enough shooting material in the early stage, there is no way to do it slower.

Corresponding to the fuselage, there are:

Select Start Time/Date: Start immediately.

Time interval: 00:00'02''.

Interval x Shooting times/interval: 2700x 1 (the end time will be automatically calculated at the bottom).

Smooth exposure: it is recommended to turn it on, and matrix metering+aperture is preferred.

Silent shooting: This option is to select mechanical shutter/electronic shutter. With the strength of IMX4 10, it can always be opened (this can protect the mechanical shutter assembly).

Interval priority: If the exposure time exceeds 2s, the interval time will be swallowed up by the exposure time that is not turned on. For example, after exposure for 4s, you will think that you have taken 2 photos. If on, the longest exposure time is the interval time. It is recommended to turn on ISO automatic use.
