Simple DSLR Time Lapse - Rebel XSi

Taken with a Canon Rebel XSi after upgrading from the XS. Unfortunately, I did change camera positions mid way through and had the camera in basic landscape mode with autofocus on causing the annoying flickering and sudden jumps in brightness. Not much scenery, just a quick first attempt at creating a time lapse video.

Stats - 1 Frame/15 seconds - Video: 25FPS

what program did you use to make a movie out of the photos?

@Tim9666

Try using Quicktime 7 pro and go to file -> Open Image Sequence. You can then choose how many FPS you want and what you want to save it as.

Looks good. What editing software do you use? iMovie will display stills for a MINIMUM of 3 frames, and I want to find something that will display them for only 1.

I used Quicktime pro 7 to make all the images into a movie file and added the sound with a seperate editing program. There are some good tutorials online too.

@Collin2377 Your memory card can only hold so many pictures most likely.

I believe you need to buy a timer. Look out for one on ebay.

Can you please tell me how should I take more pictures continuously with my Canon Rebel xsi ? My Rebel xsi when I set on continuous shooting it takes only 10 pictures, no more and then it stops. Is there any specific feature that I haven't discovered yet ? Please help. Thank you.
