If you shoot in RAW and at max resolution and for 4 hours wouldn't that be too large for CF cards? You can get a 128gb San Disk. I don't know.

The idea of shooting RAW is so you can do a batch processing on the images correcting various things as you mentioned?

Possibly more important than that is having the right lens/camera setup.

Some of Alex's are Nikon 14-24 at F2.8 (I assume at 14mm) and ISO3200. Nikon D700 which is about 12mp. So the files would be "manageable".

I am looking to do some of this as well so I am interested in the replies you get.

The D800 has a time lapse done in camera. I am not sure how good that would be. It is part of the video capability and you can set the exposure time and gap. That's HD output. Video is shot at high rez and downsampled to HD quality I think (not 100$ sure).

Greg.
