What is Time Lapse Video?
• A normal VCR records 50 fields per second, while
this time lapse VCR records in a range from 0.88
to 10 fields per second. Through reduction of the
number of fields recorded per second, this VCR is
capable of recording for extended periods of time
on a standard video tape (up to a maximum of 168
hours).
• As a result, this VCR is extremely useful for long-
term monitoring or recording events that take
place slowly (such as the blooming of a flower).
• If a tape that has been recorded in time lapse
mode is played back in the normal three-hour
mode, the speed of the tape will be increased 5 to
57 times, depending on the speed the original
recording was made at, so that the slow changes
that were recorded can be viewed at a much
faster speed.
CAUTION
The format used for time lapse recording in this
video cassette recorder differs from the regular S-
VHS and VHS video formats. Cassettes recorded in
three-hour mode on this unit can be viewed on a
normal S-VHS or VHS video cassette rcorder.
However, cassettes recorded in other modes may
show some picture noise when played on a normal
S-VHS or VHS video cassette recorder.
