What is a Time Lapse calculator?

A Time Lapse Calculator helps determine the ideal shooting interval and total number of frames needed to create a time-lapse video of a specific duration. By entering the final video length and frame rate, it calculates how often photos should be captured and how long the recording will take. This tool is useful for photographers and filmmakers to plan smooth, consistent, and visually appealing time-lapse sequences.

How to Use the Time Lapse Calculator:

Three Calculation Modes:

Tab -01: Event Duration – Calculate how long you need to shoot.
Enter your desired shoot interval and final clip length.
Get the total shooting time required

Tab – 02:Shoot Interval – Find the right time between shots.
Enter your available shooting time and desired clip length.
Calculate the perfect interval between photos

Tab – 03: Clip Length – Determine your final video duration.
Enter your shooting time and interval between shots.
See how long your time-lapse video will be

Simple Steps:

Select a tab for your calculation type
Enter values in hours, minutes, and seconds
Set FPS (24-30 for standard video, 60 for smooth motion)
Add image size (2-8MB for JPEG, 20-50MB for RAW)
Click Calculate to see results instantly

Results Include:
