Inside every a6000 and a7 series camera is a set of Sony-made apps to extend the functionality of the camera. One of those apps is called Time Lapse and this video DigitalHypeTV demonstrates the use of the app, which turns the camera in to an “intervalometer,” the fancy name for a camera capable of taking a series of images over a period of time.

The Time-lapse app allows select cameras to take a series of still pictures at certain intervals and then automatically combine them to create time-lapse movies. The following time lapse themes can be selected in which settings are automatically adjusted by the camera: Cloudy Sky. After installation, you should find the app in the 'Application List' on your camera. Use the menu button to exit the app; The app writes a log to the SD card (TWEAKLOG.TXT) There are several different tabs: Video. Remove the 30 minute recording limit and enjoy (almost) unlimited video recording.

Many users of the Sony a6000 and a7 series systems have no idea that the cameras have built in app stores with a number of add-on programs available to give the camera additional creative functions. The Time Lapse app is perhaps the most powerful of the tools as it eliminates the need to use extra hardware in order to capture time lapse images.

For $10 Sony photographers can turn their cameras into a sophisticated and configurable time lapse machine. There’s a bit of a question as to whether or not Sony should charge for the software tools, in fact Sony is the only company we know that charges photographers for software that enhances the functionality of the own camera system.

The apps can be downloaded directly on the camera or via the incredibly confusing Sony PlayMemories Camera Apps site.
