Nice! But aren't you affraid of shutter life? I have guaranteed 100,000 cycles on my cam, but I have shoot around 50,000 photos already, what do you think? Should or should not I continue shooting time lapse(not all are on my yt channel)? Did you have any problems with that?

Thank you for your answer. :)

[NicolesyPhotography]

@Ondro1112 I don't really shoot enough timelapse to worry about it, but now that I have a "spare" camera (my Canon 60D) I use that as my "timelapse camera". That way I don't have to worry about it killing the shutter on my main cameras.

Hey Nicole, Great tutorial there!

I wanted to ask only one thing. What's going to be with the manual mode if I want to shoot timelapse video through day and night? If I use manual mode and not change settings my afternoon-night photos will be black. Is it better to get it to Aperture mode (with standard brightness) or not?

thanks a lot

[NicolesyPhotography]

@kanibalos46 I would suggest picking an exposure setting (in Manual mode) that's going to be the brightest time of day. If you want to shoot from morning-to-night then the transition from dark, to light, to dark again is ideal (IMO). I've never shot anything for that long of a time period, but that's how I would do it if I were setting one up.

Hello, I wanted o make an animation video.

So my thoughts are: draw on a paper or drawing board my caracters (moving etc.) I think 15 pictures per sec?

So will it work if I draw something, take a picture of it and so on, so like a character that is walking, and of every drawing, I take a picture, if I upload my pictures in premiere pro (for example) and add sounds etc. will it work to make an animation video out of that?

I hope somebody can help me, and sorry for the bad explenation :)

I use very simple cameras for my time lapse. I would not like to leave an expensive camera outside for weeks at a time
