Clouds at night timelapse test

Just shot a short number of photos to test a timelapse movie of clouds at night. There were low clouds rolling over the hills while cirrus clouds were above them at full Moon shining.

How do you converted it to 16:9 format? I suppose 5dmkII doesn't shoot pictures in 16:9 format....

That question bothers me for a while :)

@andreiwindstorm I just made a crop of single images to 1920x1080p format and made a TL. Indeed original image is not 16:9, but would fit into 1920x1280p, so you need to crop it a bit :) The problem is that if you want to combine fullHD video from 5dmk2 and still images, then you have to crop them.

@SLOchaser wow...it must've been a "little" time consuming to crop every single image :) I thought there was somehow a soft that crops the whole video to 16:9. I've uploaded a few timelapses too and I really think they would look much better in 16:9 format. Also another question :) what conversion method you use? I use mpeg4 but it really cuts down the quality.

Thanks :)

@andreiwindstorm Ah no, its quite easy in photoshop or lightroom with a action option, the program does it alone in a few minutes :) I render videos into .WMV for publishing, sometimes even into .MOV.

@SLOchaser Thanks. So I must get Photoshop. But first, a better computer :)
