Very smooth timelapse. The soundtrack really gives you a different impression as well.

So for smooth motions, 0.8 seconds exposure & 1 second interval?

Excellent & a good soundtrack choice.

For my first try - here - I used 0.5s exposures and 1s interval. When I try it again I'll make a few changes - especially not shooting in raw. I could only get 1.5 hours onto a 32GB card! I'll probably try sRaw to keep the editability but drop file size sugnificantly.

Nice one. I think the exposure must be as much close to the interval.

I think this was all shot video and then sped up. For example in the car sequence the cars have smooth motion with no gaps that would be created between frames. If you're shooting with an intervalometer you're not going to have that smooth motion.

Very nice time lapse!

The main reason for having long exposure times (around one-half the interval time) is to create the smooth movement. It's from the days of shooting with film where a 180 degree shutter would expose the film for 50% of the frame rate.

I second that.
