My go to, is 10 minutes, 2 second intervals. If the clouds are moving slowly, you can go to 5 second intervals, but it will not be as smooth. IF they are moving fast, or there is water, I like 1 second intervals. But I like to mix it up, not everything the same length if I am going to have multiple sequences in a video. It needs variety, and you need to be able to trim to fit the space you need.

You can do it with LR and PS. This is the method I use, from someone I think is a leader in the timelapse world. If it is a simple sequence.




More complicated stuff starts needing LR Timelapse, and I have not gotten there yet.

Oh, amateur tip...make sure sensor and all glass elements are clean...I just had to go through 400 frames and remove dust spots frame by frame...because they were in tricky spots that LR would not batch and do a good job...

Thanks Travis, very useful and much appreciated.

I’m quite excited to give this a try

Guys I'm back
As some know, in the last 3 months I've retired, gotten married, sold a house, bought a car, completed the massive
move from the city to the mountains, remodeled the house I sold and completed (never really done when married haha!)
the remodel of the 'retirement home'.

I sold my A7Riv and a9, bought the Alpha1, added a FE20/1.8.

Now to photography.
Tonight at 0100 we crossed the lake for the Milky Way vantage spot. I took my ancient a7s and the A1/used the 20/1.8 on each.
There is a reason I keep the old girl
Yet the A1 did just fine.
Could have done better if my fingers (on the fly-by-wire focus) were screaming after 30 min's...it was 37F/2.7c. Luckily no wind.

First up the Alpha

Welcome back, Robert, you have indeed been busy, but glad you had the time both for GAS and to take great images!

you are most welcome.

After a bit of a break, Episode #30 is online this morning! Less than 6 minutes! Just a short video about the evening photographing the big waves on the coast.

Now that lockdown is easing I can finally target some photo orientated trips. Heading to Skye for 4 days in 2 weeks time. Want to target the fairy pools and the Old Mann of Storr (amongst other things) as I’ve never actually visited them on previous trips there.

Now to start planning the loadout

Just caught up on this & thought of you Eddie

Trying to take a 'selfie' with my Kodak Vigilant. Unfortunately, my autoknips mechanical timer at the end of a cable release didn't travel far enough to trigger the shutter. So, I bribed my neighbor with a beer to come over and push the shutter button for me.

I added a black border in post for this one.

Great video Travis! One of my favorite places to visit when I'm down that way.

Beautiful photography! I wish I had a tenth of your talent.

It is somewhere I have been several times, just never down to this spot, So it was fun to go somewhere new. You are much too kind, thanks. Don't sell yourself short.
