2. Then, set the interval time of interval photography. According to the real scene you shot, the fast change will shorten the interval, and the slow change will be longer. The picture below shows the adjustment for five minutes.

3. After setting the interval, set the number of photos taken at the selected interval x, where the selected interval refers to the total number of photos to be taken. The following figure sets 300 photos, and the number of photos taken refers to how many photos were taken by each shutter. The following figure sets 1 photo.

Precautions for Sony hxr-nx3:

1, don't drop and physically smash the camera. A camera is a precision instrument. If you do this, a small piece of metal may fall off and the camera may not be used.

Take your camera, especially when playing by the water, don't fall into the water, because the camera is not waterproof.

Don't put the camera in the TV cabinet or next to the TV, and try to avoid the place near the strong magnetic field.

4. Don't put the camera in a place with extremely high or low temperature, such as the air outlet of air conditioner or the car with direct sunlight.

5. Don't clean the body and lens with organic solution, just blow away the dust with air.

Generally, it is set to M gear, ISO manual, and the aperture cannot be too small. Generally speaking, it's better to use the periphery of F8, and the preset shooting interval of different scenes should be different. For example, the traffic at night is usually two to five seconds, and it can be three to ten seconds when shooting clouds.

Timing cable release: When shooting time-lapse photography with a SLR camera, it is necessary to take a series of photos at equal intervals, and it is impossible to completely press the shutter by hand. Many cameras have no interval shooting function and need an external timer.

Delay track: A photographic track equipped with a stepping motor and shutter controller. Through precise electronic and mechanical control, the camera moves a certain distance on the track every time it takes a photo, so as to achieve the purpose of moving shooting. Time-delay tracking is a professional time-delay shooting equipment.

Sony was originally a Japanese brand. Sony, formerly known as "Tokyo Communication Industry Co., Ltd.", developed rapidly, but when it gradually entered the international market, the original company name was too long, which was not conducive to international development.

So I decided to use the Latin souns and the English sunnyboy to form sonny, which means a lovely child who starts with a voice. But the pronunciation of sonny is unlucky in Japanese vocabulary, so I finally removed one of the "n" and became sony.

Sony is a pioneer in the fields of audio-visual, video games, communication products and information technology, a pioneer in global portable digital products, one of the world's largest manufacturers of electronic products, one of the three giants in the world's video game industry, and one of the six major Hollywood film companies in the United States. Its brands include Xperia, Walkman, SonyMusic, Columbia Pictures and PlayStation.

How to shoot Sony time-lapse photography

Time-lapse photography is also called time-lapse photography and time-lapse video recording. It is the opposite of high-speed photography.

Different from the "slow motion" effect of high-speed photography, time-lapse photography is a "fast motion" effect. Specifically, time-lapse photography can compress time and show the scene change process of minutes, hours or even days in a very short time, thus presenting a unique picture effect.

The shooting method of time-lapse photography is as follows:

1, using the camera's own timing animation function to shoot time-lapse photography.

Some cameras have the function of timing animation. With this function, you can take time-lapse photography.

The specific shooting method is as follows:

First of all, set the shooting parameters such as aperture, shutter, sensitivity, focusing point and metering point, and fix the camera.

Then, enter the "Timed Animation" option in the camera settings menu, set the total shooting time and the interval between two adjacent photos, and then press the shutter to start shooting. You can get a time-delayed video without sound after shooting.

2. Use the interval shooting function of the camera itself to shoot time-lapse photography.

Some cameras don't have timing animation function, but they support interval shooting function. With this function, we can also take time-lapse photography. Specifically, you can shoot like this:

First of all, set the shooting parameters such as aperture, shutter, sensitivity, focusing point and metering point, and fix the camera.

Then, enter the "interval shooting" option in the camera setting menu, set the total number of shots, the interval between two adjacent photos and other options, and then press the shutter to shoot.

This will be a set of photos. Later, these photos can be edited into time-lapse photography videos by software.

3. Use cable release with timer to shoot time-lapse photography.

Some cameras have neither timed animation function nor interval shooting function. For these cameras, cable release with timer can be used for time-lapse photography.

Specifically, you can shoot like this.

First of all, install the cable, fix the camera, and set the shooting parameters such as aperture, shutter, sensitivity, focusing point and metering point.

Then, set the interval between two adjacent photos and the total number of photos on the shutter line, and then you can control cable release to release the shutter for shooting.

After shooting, a group of photos can be edited into time-delayed video by software.

All the above methods can shoot time-delayed video. In contrast, it is most convenient to use the timed animation function to shoot, but the low-end camera does not have this function, so it is necessary to use the interval shooting function or cable release with timer to shoot. Although it's a little troublesome, the shooting effect is the same.

Not all Sony cameras can take time-lapse photography. If you want to take time-lapse photography, in order to take time-lapse photography, Sony Micro-single needs an APP (time-lapse photography/interval photography) in addition to the camera itself, which can be purchased in the Sony Smart Camera App Store.
