what did you use as an intervalometer?

[vwlover94]

@118doublej I usedthe ipod touches standard timer app to time it every 1 minute and 10 seconds and did this for 3hours that night , every frame shot I believe was 25 seconds exposure cause if I did more the light pollution wouldn't let me see a thing. ;) hope that helps

@vwlover94 nice yeah that quality is really good. How did you connect the ipod to the camera?

[vwlover94]

@118doublej I didnt connect the ipod, i just had it in my hand and i did the following,

went ot manual mode on my camera, manual focus, f2.8 30seconds shutter,iso 200 i believe and a 2second timer for everyshot taken, and i used the ipods timer app, to indiviually time every photo for 1 mintue, so every 1 minute i click the timer, 2sec, and then click the shutter button, the ipod was on my hand, not connected to anyting,used a 2 sec timer on the camera to prevent vibrations,

@vwlover94 oh ok so it was just manual. right now i'm working on wiring my ti89 to my camera (same one) so it does it automatically. thanks for the info.

[vwlover94]

@118doublej No prob ;), so you too have the Fz100?

@118doublej Hey guys,

if you're still interested in an intervalometer, ou could buy the JJC TM-D for the fz100.

I got mine two days ago, and I think it works pretty well (I just did two test movies, which you can watch on my channel)!

I'm going to do some timelapse movies in the next days!!!

[118doublej]

@vwlover94 Yeah I just got it and I love it!

[vwlover94]
