id say slow the frame rate to 24fps on playback as it seems a little fast to me


this is a very good guide and also includes how to work out what intervals to shoot at etc..

I can see why video editors want very high spec computers now  :huh:

Watched this last night and it's great. Might have to give this a go some time.

It's very card and time-intensive!

I had the tripod locked to various things on the wharf yesterday to try and minimise the chance of some b*gger walking off with it!

In terms of the cost of photography kit though, the £25 for the interval timer is pretty reasonable.

I'd probably drop the frame rate slightly, but great choice of subjects

opposed from just using the quick release  :laugh:  theft is my main concern for a project like this.

It's a very old tripod - it has no quick release that I'm aware of and I am capable of doing the lock-screw underneath up VERY tight!

I have a further section from where I had the camera on the roof, which is where it ran out of card space.

FWIW I started it shooting at before 9AM and it ran until mid-day on the first battery.  The second was fine after filling up the second card.

Must remember to check there's not 1 1/2 Gig of photos in another folder on the card next time - an error of school-boy proportions!  :grin:

Early start this morning:



It's going to be there all day, with a shot every 30 seconds, until sun-down.  :grin:
