Vixen Polarie setup horizontally works as a panning device. You can switch it from southern hemisphere to northern if you want the panning to go in the opposite direction.
I have used a Nikon D800E for time lapse and it has an inbuilt time lapse function which works well and outputs as a .mov file.
Most shoot in RAW and use templates from Granite Bay software to create time lapses once they have processed one RAW image. You can use the sync command in Lightroom to make all the images in the sequence use the same settings as your first processed RAW which is a great function.
A typical time lapse would be:
30 seconds
F2.8
long exposure noise reduction off.
ISO setting would depend on the camera but ISO3200 would be minimum
some handle ISO6400 (late model full frames).
White balance to 4350K (can be adjusted in post if shot in RAW).
Use an intervalometer.
Manual focus
You may need some insulation around the lens to prevent dewing or even dewheating straps.
Process in Adobe Lightroom.
Greg.
