I am having some difficulty getting the built in intervalometer on the Nikon Z6 set up. When I go into the menu to set up, everything seems find until I change "interval Priority" to "On." When I do this, it resets the interval X shots" screen so I'm only taking one shot per interval. I've tried adjusting the shutter speed to work with the calculations and nothing seems to work.
I thought I understood this based on my internet research, but clearly, I'm doing something wrong.
As an example of my understanding (or lack of):
Interval = 2 minutes
Interval X shots = 10 X 3
Shutter Speed = 30 seconds
It should take 90 with another 30 seconds to spare for overhead/processing/etc. This should work, right? It does only until I set Interval Priority to "OFF."
Additionally, I'm using manual shooting mode, manual focus, etc. I could understand that if my calcs were off, that the intervalometer would just shut off or not take as many pictures as I expected, but I'm just trying to figure out why I can't increase my intervals X shots beyond 1.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
