I have a Nikon Coolpix 8400. One of its best features is that it will take Time Lapse movies. They can be set to take frames at 30 seconds, 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes. All I’ve ever used is 30 seconds and 1 minute. I’d love it if it could shoot 1 frame a second or 5 frames a second. I found a newer firmware update on the Nikon site and did an edit-find for “lapse” in the code and found this stuff below. Obviously this is in several languages. Is this part of the code just the display text? If I were to change the numbers around it couldn’t possibly change the timing, could it?
