The TIME LAPSE is a technique which involves creating a video from a large quantity of photos taken from the same place and at a specific time interval of a few seconds to a few minutes.
For example, if you perform a time lapse with 10 seconds between each photo and a battery life of three hours,. you can make a film that is 36 seconds long with 30 images per second.
When using the camera, the battery naturally heats up. This effect is increased when you use the camera in its waterproof case.
If you use the camera in its waterproof case, this heating effect can increase the build up of fog. Also, we recommend you use the 3 anti-fog inserts to place inside the case.
