Article ## Canon R5 Timelapse Modes Overview
In the latest addition to its portfolio, the Canon EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera has been a subject of much discussion and speculation among photographers and enthusiasts. Despite the mixed reviews, one aspect that remns undisputed is its potential capabilities for timelapse photography.
My personal interest, however, lies in exploring how this cutting-edge technology can be used to create stunning timelapses, so let's delve into what the Canon R5 offers in terms of time-lapse creation.
Firstly, there's the PHOTO MODE aka INTERVAL TIMER feature. This mode enables users to shoot full-resolution RAW, CRAW and JPEG images simultaneously using the built-in intervalometer. The intriguing aspect here is that while I'm still investigating whether it supports HEIF format photos like the Canon 1DXMkIII does.
The INTERVAL TIMER allows you to set your camera to take photographs at intervals as low as one second or even up until zero, effectively allowing for continuous shooting until manually stopped. This feature comes with a maximum limit of taking 99 shots per sequence, which might be considered somewhat restrictive compared to other cameras.
Next on the list is MOVIE MODE and its TIMELAPSE MOVIE mode function that lets you capture videos at resolutions up to 4K in AVCHD format. This mode offers a variety of shooting options but does not support the recording of raw video footage directly.
For a more detled exploration, there are various additional inquiries based on feedback from users:
1 Can EOS R5 time-lapse videos be recorded in CLOG? The team at Canon Australia has confirmed that this is not an option.
2 Is it possible to use the fully electronic shutter mode for recording timelapses in either photo or video modes? Yes, Canon’s answer suggests this is indeed feasible.
3 Can users manually set and adjust camera settings during intervals between photos when using the photo intervalometer mode? The reply was yes, indicating flexibility in tweaking parameters on-the-fly.
It's also interesting to note that while taking RAW images with the interval timer option exists, capturing raw movie files isn't possible. This suggests a limitation for those seeking raw footage output directly from their Canon R5.
The maximum shutter speed range during timelapse movie shooting is specified as 14000 – 30 seconds. Additionally, there's an unlimited mode avlable which can theoretically record shots indefinitely until manually stopped by the user.
There see be no concrete limit on how many photos you can take with Interval Mode, beyond what Canon specifies for a maximum of 99 shots per sequence. However, it’s worth noting that while there isn't a dedicated max-shutter-speed or interval-priority setting like some other cameras offer, users can manually ramp exposure during the intervals.
In , the Canon EOS R5 offers robust capabilities specifically tlored for timelapse enthusiasts. While its limitations might not be as extensive as in other advanced camera, it remns a versatile tool that allows photographers to create breathtaking time-lapse movies with ease and precision.
