Time lapse photography newbie...help!
Jstein wrote:
Hello everyone, I have recently started experimenting with time lapse photography. I have successfully shot sequences during the day & during the night but where I'm having trouble is shooting a time lapse that runs during both. Last night in fact, I set up to shoot the sun rising over the street from my window. I set the program to start from 4:30 to 10:30. About half way through, the images started gradually getting washed out and unreadable. I was under the impression that when shooting time lapse the camera should be set to manual exposure with white balance locked in. If this is the case, and you are not around to adjust the camera, how does one take long time lapses? I am shooting a Canon Rebel XTI with DSLR photo software for Windows. Any help you can provide would be much appreciated. Thanks, There surely is some remote control software for this job but aside from that... if there is any sort of variation in lighting from moving clouds, you won't like automatic exposure because that'll cause flickering. What you need is a plan from the day before knowing what exposure is good for each condition at what time and manually adjust. -- Paul Furman www.edgehill.net www.baynatives.com all google groups messages filtered due to spam |
