In this short but one of my first attempts at timelapse, I used 30 sec exp and picasa. ( I think I had the lens at 10mm, F3.5 and 800iso)
By smooth, do you mean jittery or the video flashes? If the vid flashes then it might be due to the camera being set on AWB. Dont use AWB when doing Timelapse.
Are you using an intervalometer? If not and the shots are not rapidly one after the other, then you might get the jitters aswell.

I'm not an expert, but these are some of my observations and stuff I picked up on the web!
Cheers and good luck Gray
