Time-lapse

Tijdlapse · Technique

A series of photos taken at equal intervals that together form a sped-up video.

Interval of 2-5 sec for clouds, 10-30 sec for sunrise or sunset. Practically indispensable: tripod, interval timer remote, plenty of memory and battery. Use manual exposure to avoid flickering - auto-exposure jumps from frame to frame.
