  • HVX200 Timelapse and Stopmotion?

    I am trying to figure out some of the timelapse settings for my new HVX200, but I’m not sure where to look an/or find where the settings are and how to access and adjust them.

    Make sure the camera is in the P2 mode…..push the “menu” button on top of the camera….go to option #5 “Recording setup”……Select “Recording Format” and choose 720p/60…….make sure the wheel on the back of the camera is set to F1, F2 or F3……on the same menu page go down two clicks and select “Rec. Function” when you select it, choose “Interval”….then go down two clicks to “Interval Time” and select the number of frames you want to record per second…minute…etc. A good starting point is 1 frame per second. Now everything is selected……push the menu button a couple of times to get rid of it…..now you’ll see a green flashing “I-Pause” at the top of the screen. The camera is ready to record timelapse…..push the record button and your off! To get out of the pause mode, switch the camera off for a moment and go into playback mode to check your recording.

    Good Luck!

    to stop the intervalometer, push the stop button on the top of the camera.

    Sorry it’s taken me a while to get back to you…..as I’m sure you figured out, you actually turn the camera off for a moment to get out of the interval record mode.
