can i use d3100 nikon for time lapse???:)..btw what is the model of your cam????

[anonymousstormchaser]

In this video I use the manual way of DSLR timelapse. I am not sure if the D3100 can timelapse photographs but I know that the D3100 has video which you can use to take timelapses. Make sure you have a high capacity memory card. I use a Nikon D40, I've had it for years and I love it, it needs some cleaning though. I am considering upgrading to a D3100 in time though.

Hello, can you please help me?

I set my intervalometer to 5 seconds and took about 400 stills while it was getting dark. However, when editing I saw that the exposure changes almost every photo and it looks very bad. Which camera settings should be used? I used P with ISO at 800 and I assume the shutter speed and aperture changed almost every shot. Should I use completely manual settings to avoid any overexposed and underexposed shots?

[anonymousstormchaser]

Ah, yes you will have to keep it on manual unchanging settings.

keep your good work up buddy........keep posting,,

[8bennugent]

your camera is on the tripod backwards

[anonymousstormchaser]

I like it facing this way because I don't like the tripod head bumping up against me.

[tobiaskierk]

nice intuitive way of making a timelapse video.

[anonymousstormchaser]

Thank you, I dont make them like this anymore. I use my video camera.

I'm using a D60 and a D5000, I don't have time to stand there tanking photo's for 15-30 minutes, I am after an automatic timed way to do it, the D5000 has video but chews up a 4GB SD in 4 minutes. I like to take photo's of the sunrise, but its blinding and I am far too busy in the morning to stand there taking photo's.

Without the option of an intervalometer, you should probably use a remote control, so you would not risk jarring the camera by handling it after setup. The Nikon D40 uses an accessory remote called the "Nikon ML-L3". It's not too expensive. Try BHPhoto, Amazon, or whoever.

Good luck.

why do these videos always have some shitty music

[anonymousstormchaser]

Why do some people have to leave shitty comments on my videos.

[soldout99]

@anonymousstormchaser its just the world we live in, and btw what camera do you use, im not sure if it was mentioned but im just curious either way xD

[anonymousstormchaser]

Apparently so. The camera I use is the Nikon D40, I have a video about it as well.

[soldout99]

Ah right, i got the Fujifilm finepix S1500 for christmas, and i was looking everywhere for a video explains how to do exposure settings. and then that failed, i just did it my self..

[MartekTheSuperhero]

Great job man

[N1CK0N]

thats why it's really nice with a semi pro camera like the D200, D300 or any camera with interval timerbuilt in, just choose how many pictures it should take and with how big intreval between them. Then just let the camera do the job. I can let my camera stand by it self when i'm in school and take photos of the wather.

but nice tutorial, cheers.
