Does this camera has timing function for photos and videos? If doesn't how could we use with the extension poles?

You can use the remote to switch the camera on/off, take still pictures or start/stop video recording. There is no time delay picture function.

Also note that any camera will slow down the "time between shots" if you use flash and maximum resolution and HD. But 5-10 seconds is absurd. Let us know if the extra firmware update improves this.

I don't believe so. You can set f stop and shutter speed manually for a still frame picture, but I believe once you put the camera on video, it is all automatic.

According to the manual, it does. I don't have the camera yet, but I have seen a couple time lapse videos that have been made with this model.

This device has no mechanism to begin the process. What you would have to do is enable a timer (for a snapshot) or simply press the record button (for a video) then position the camera as you want. While I can see some value in using it to position the camera up in the air, this really isn't the intended purpose of the pole. Instead, its purpose is to simply provide stability when shooting so you don't end up with a blurry shot or unsteady video.

There is no time delay. As soon as you press all the way down the picture is captured. I love this camera. It's great!

Not that we're aware of. We just recently bought the camera and haven't used it much. It does have a time-delayed option -- as in setting up the camera for a shot and joining in the picture. But not a time-elapsed feature that we know of. cj

I have never had more than a 2 second delay. There is an option to put the camera on action so the delay time is minimal

It only has a shutter button and a two second delay. If you want something for time lapse photography this probably isn't it.

I don't understand your question, if your asking: Does this camera have time as in how long has it been in the market? : I bought mine like 4 or 5 years ago so it's been a while, (and stopped working properly about 6-7 month after buying it; but looks good as a decor element) or Does this camera have time as if this camera has timestamp? yes it has but can't remember where is in the menu sorry..

There's no time lapse per se. But there's a mini mode. While in this mode the camera drops frames at certain intervals which results in very fast footage. However the the top and bottom part of the video will be blurred creating a special effect which is basically tilt-shift. The latest crop of Panasonic dedicated consumer cams -- in case you are interested -- does have the time lapse function though.

My camera has two modes. One is a time delay feature. So I'll get everything ready, set a delay, hold the camera out and wait for the timer. The other mode is a rapid picture mode. It allows me to have the camera take pictures once a minute until it runs out of memory. So I set the camera to start taking time slice pictures. The first few pictures are me positioning the camera and throw away. The last few pictures are me turning the camera off and throw away. Hopefully I get a few good pictures in the middle.It has been a little trial and error but I'm getting better at it.

I have not found any delay. However, I'm just an amateur when it comes to taking pics, so I'm not sure how important it is for you to know the length of the shutter lag.

Yes it has a motion activated recording with how long you want it to record after it is started. It also can send you a snapshot to your phone when it senses motion. If you have a tree branch in part of the view you can go in and set that channel to just ignore that section of the camera view. That option is hard to explain with out pictures to help. The receiver is very veritable.

I've tried to do some time lapse filming with my PJ650V, but I couldn't find a way to do it. None of the documentation I've found describes it.

Yes. The camera has a "self timer" option. When composing your picture, pressing the Function button brings up the timer option where you can select the default 10 second delay, or choose an alternate time delay. Then press the shutter button and the camera will flash a warning light (and beep), increasing in speed until the shutter is released and the picture is taken.
