Do you use ND filters when shooting timelapse like this ? And if yes, what kind ? Thanks in advance.
You started out with an ND filter to give the ong exposure during daylight, but did the nd filter remain in place into the night??
Loved how it is done
This guy deserves an award😅😅😁😁😉
Super helpful .that looks like a great tripod too
You were a tad faster this time !
I thought getting a college degree was hard:o)
So you adjust the photos before and after each manual exposure change in lightroom? Also does the cloud amount/speed affect your interval choice?
Awesome
"Face the camera towards the sunset, usually West" – usually 😉
doesn't worked to me….
I have just uploaded a terrible sunset time lapse — LOL — BEFORE watching your tutorial. So now that I know my mistakes (which was pretty much everything!!), I have watched your video and will try again when I have a chance. Thank you for your very specific recommendations and tips!
Very confusing….. You started by saying it's important to shoot in manual – a minute later you say to shoot aperture priority ,
Damn man! We were doing a physics BSc together with the timelapse!
Impressive work
Greetings from Chicago, Illinois, Awesome video! Check out my channel at: "time lapse videos by donald granger" of time lapse music videos of thunderstorms, moon rises, sunsets and snow melting. More will be coming soon.
hallo, schöne Aufnahmen, gut gemacht, freue mich auf deine Besuch auf meinem Kanal grüße Wolfgang
Can someone help clear one thing? He sets the shutter speed to about 5-7 sec and the syrup to rotate 30 deg in 2 hours. How does he avoid motion blur?
Great technique, thanks for the excellent job on this video. A lot of work, I really appreciate that!
Won't variable ND filters cause an X mark on the photos?
hand down, your tutorial is just amazing. You got a sub sir
Is better to set all in manual and just increase the ISO or aperture priority and than adjust the flickering if i must shoot a landscape timelapse?
Do you have a more in depth tutorial how you did the lightroom and lrtimelapse it went a bit too fast to follow… Thank you
Very good tutorial and great tips. I like that you don't waste time on useless chatter. Straight to the point. And great photography too.
Thanks for your help.
I like to know how do I use the Timelapse App in my Sony camera with Genie Mini?
Watch my video
How is he adjusting the ISO manually without touching the camera during the shoot?
Thanks for sharing, great tutorial~
name of the app ti predict the sun travel?
Thanks for the many detailed explanations.
Very nice and helpful video! Thank's man. Keep up the good work.
