Time Lapse Test - Miami, Florida - August 12, 2007

Testing the interval record feature on one of my video cameras. This clip was recorded over a four hour period on the afternoon of August 12, 2007, looking northeast over downtown Miami, Florida. I was using a .5 second exposure every 30 seconds.

It's interesting to note that two of the four construction cranes, visible in the shot, move significantly with the changing wind direction (no construction work was taking place)... the other two remain fixed.

Thanks Chris! Hopefully I'll be able to use the feature to record the approach of Dean's cirrus shield... hahaha!

Thanks!! You've got some really great time lapse footage yourself.

Thanks Mike! This clip was taken over a four hour period from 2:20pm - 6:20pm, yesterday. The video camera itself actually created the basic time lapse, using the interval recording feature to take .5 second exposures every 30 seconds. I then used my video editing software (Sony Vegas) to speed it up even further.

Can you imagine being in the eyewall of Dean when that monster made landfall at 906mb!!!! Apocalyptic!

I keep watching the model runs on Dean. A real game of whether this storm is gonna find a way to creep north my way, or head yours. Some of the models show Hispanola really getting hammered which would be a major disaster. Waiting to see what might happen is always hard...

That is so cool. How long a period of time was this taken over and what software do you use to time lapse it?
