Set intervals from 1 second to 1 day


The "Recolo" IR7 is a camera that makes interval shooting enjoyable with simple settings. Interval shooting is a technique where photos are taken continuously at set time intervals. By connecting the captured images to create a video, you can compress the passage of time and dynamically observe things like plant growth or changing landscapes.

It's easy to use. Captured images are saved as video files on an SD card (sold separately) inserted into the unit. After shooting, you can enjoy the video as is on your computer without any tedious editing. The image quality has been upgraded to high definition from previous models. In addition to automatic settings for intervals ranging from 1 second to 1 day, manual shooting is also possible. Captured photos can be enhanced with special effects, with five options to choose from: Normal, Vivid for sharp, vibrant colors, and Monochrome for a unique, atmospheric black-and-white look.

Furthermore, it supports extended use, capable of approximately 5,000 shots at 1-second intervals or about 730 shots at 1-day intervals using four AA alkaline batteries. Its IPX4 splash-proof design also ensures durability against sudden rain, making it safe for outdoor shooting.

This camera is perfect for capturing changes with ease. It can be enjoyed in a wide range of scenarios, including documenting plant growth, flower blooms, changing landscapes, travel progress, creating stop-motion videos like clay animation, and monitoring construction sites. It will be released on Friday, May 16th.
