Trying New Methods with Timelapse and a Slider

www.learningdslrvideo.com Drove up into the mountains for a camping weekend with my youngest daughter and I thought I would share some of the footage from a video I made from our trip and some of the things I tried and learned. I omitted most of the closeups of my daughter. I tried two different methods with the time lapses. The time lapse of us setting up the tent was done on manual mode and the other was on time priority. I used manual mode to see if I could rid it of flicker I have had on previous time lapse but what I got when the clouds came in and out was an over exposed image. I won't try that method again where the light changes so dramatically. When we took the tent down in morning there were no clouds which is typical for a Colorado morning and I tried time priority mode and didn't notice any flicker. I really like time priority because I can drag the shutter and get a nice smooth consist ant look. I used an ISO of 100 and a shutter of half a second. The only thing that changed was the aperture, and I really never noticed the depth of field change. The only way I could pull off half second shutter times is with my Lightcraft Workshop variable ND filter which I really love. As far as I can see, it does a great job of reducing the light entering the camera without adding any color shift. I highly recommend this filter for timelapse and getting shallow DOF in bright conditions. The other thing I tried was, instead of using a wide angle lens mounted on my Konova ...
