Since I can't find anything about this, I imagine there is no way to do timelapse with the VG10, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Any thoughts? thanks...

nothing in camera, but you can get external controls for DSLR's that will physically push the shutter button at set intervals. Don't know if there are any specifically designed for the VG10, or if there are any generic models that will work with this cam. Anyone?

There is nothing on the camera for this, but:
1) If you are doing something like stop motion animation, you will need third party hardware as mentioned above.
2) If you are just trying to speed up a sunset, cloud motion, etc., you can just speed the clip up in post.

I've been inside the VG10 but getting at the photo trigger wiring is so far, a no no - I wanted to add an external trigger port - I just have to be braver next time I go in !
