Shooting Time-lapse Movies (Time-lapse Movie)
With the time-lapse movies, the frame rate (number of pictures
taken for one second) is slowed down. When you play back these
pictures, the subject appears to move much more quickly. This
effect may be useful for taking blooming flowers, for example.

of 15 frames per second. This means those taken at ×2 appear to
be played back twice faster and those at ×5 five times faster than
×1.
