Ace Series: Timelapse Mode
Ace Series: Timelapse Mode
Applicable Models: Ace, Ace Pro, and Ace Pro 2
Timelapse is a technique that captures a series of photos at fixed intervals and compiles them into a video. It condenses slowly evolving scenes like sunrises, sunsets, or drifting clouds into short visual sequences, allowing you to easily capture the passage of time.
How to enable the Timelapse Mode
1. Use the Timelapse Mode
After powering on the camera, tap the "Shooting Mode" icon in the lower left of the screen, and swipe left or right to select "Timelapse".

2. Set shooting parameters
Timelapse requires configuring two core parameters: Interval and Shoot Length:
- Interval
- Available interval options: 0.5s, 1s, 2s, 5s, 10s, 15s (Ace Pro 2 only), 30s, 60s, 120s.
- Shoot Length
- This refers to the total time actually spent capturing the scene. The generated video's duration can be calculated using this formula: Final Video Duration (seconds) = Shoot Length (seconds) ÷ Interval (seconds)
- Example: With a 5-second interval and a 50-minute (3000-second) Shoot Length, the final video length is 3000 ÷ 5 = 600 seconds (i.e., 10 minutes).
3. Start shooting
Once the parameters are set, tap the Shutter button on the screen to begin. Please keep the camera stable during shooting to ensure smooth and clear footage.
