Three Beautiful time lapse videos & a question

[Analog6 (Odille)]

Please see the link on my blog as I've described it all there. They are absolutely stunning.

I am going to have a try at one of these, as the H2 lets you set it up for interval timing with up to 255 exposures. I plan to do a 'test run' at moonrise tonight (I can set it up on my verandah facing east). Can someone suggest how long the interval should be? I thought I would make it Aperture priority on f8, ISO will be 100 or 200 (it's a noisy bugger).

I can choose Number of exposures, from 2 – 255; and Interval duration, from 1 second – 24 hours.

G'Day Odille,

For startrails I use a 30s exposure with my Oly E510 (also noisy) and a 34s interval to give it a chance to process the image and store it. For moonrise however you'll need a much shorter exposure I expect (if the moon is in shot) but I's suggest leaving the interval at about 30s.

Thanks, that was about my thought. After suddenly realising the lunar eclipse is tomorrow morning, I'll have a go at that too.

You have got that right Odile ... Stunning ... as were your own images I might add.
