Timelapse Photography Made Easy
Whether you’re interested in garden photography or creating your own movies, timelapse technology offers an innovative view of any sequential event. To create a timelapse movie, simply set the camera to take still photos at the desired time interval—immediately, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, or once a day. It will automatically turn on after each interval countdown, take a photo, then return to battery conservation mode. After you are finished taking photos in timelapse mode, simply set the camera to “Convert to Movie” and it does the work for you!

With 4.0 Megapixels, the Timelapse PlantCam takes crisp, clear still photos and video clips. The sturdy, weatherproof construction doesn’t interfere with the camera’s operation or picture quality. Plus, the photos are high enough resolution to create beautiful prints!

The PlantCam doesn’t require any special software for viewing photos. It can connect directly to your television or computer, or you can simply transfer from the optional memory card. Photos and videos download in standard formats for viewing, printing, e-mailing or posting online.
