Seamless mode (custom interval trigger sequence)

December 27, 2017

Update - October 21, 2026

The paired-camera pattern below is a historical 2017 example. It explains the creative effect, but the old mode name and controls should not be treated as current setup instructions. For today's capture controls and programmable timing, consult Trigger basics and Timeline Scripts. Those guides do not by themselves guarantee an identical built-in seamless preset; test the intended camera pattern and resulting playback.

I remember the day I asked my team to develop this feature. They were looking at me with a wth face. Yeah, I had been thinking about this for a long time, and I’m glad it works well. It doesn’t really make sense if you’re not in full 360, but if you are, wow!

Here’s the principle: when you trigger in interval mode from camera 1 to 84 (in a 84 cameras setup), there’s going to be a time bump at the end of the loop. That’s normal, it’s like playing a video you filmed in loop. But what if we could capture the time at equal moments from two different angles? That’s the seamless mode! Here’s the trigger pattern:

1 + 84
2 + 83
3 + 82
4 + 81
etc…

In the playback, we’ll get a seamless mode. No beginning and no end. But you’ll always see the same movement from two angles. Makes sense? (insert head-scratching emoji here)

Ok watch the video, it’s going to be more obvious ;)
