Hey David,
Looking good. Do you mind if I ask a couple of techo questions that relate to D800 and timelapse. Traditionally Nikon cameras have had some issues in these areas.
1. Are you using automatic aperture lenses - G series? If yes, is there anyway to lock the aperture between exposures? If not, can you lock the aperture (via depth of field button) then partially twist off the lens to lock the aperture in place?
2. Precision of bulb. This maybe hard to test, but it's important for bulb ramping that the bulb precision is < 10 ms, preferably 1 ms.
3. What are the maximum number of shots you can take in continuous mode?
I ask because I'm evaluating 5D3 vs D800. I haven't got my hands on a D800 yet. Currently I'm a 5D2 user, but have been using a Nikon 14-24 with adaptor for timelapse. So happy to use whatever works best.
Thanks
Colin
