Calling Crockett and Tubbs

kblaw · Nov 7, 2011

This is my first time lapse effort. I spent a couple hours shooting yesterday, and a couple of hours editing tonight. A few things went wrong (the primary one being that it was so windy that the camera was shaking slightly in some scenes even though it was on a secure tripod), but all things considered, I'm not displeased with it as a first shot at doing a time lapse.

looks like fun. How did you do the zooming in and out?

Excellent job, and absolutely spot on with the choice of soundtrack.
Can't wait to see your next time-lapse

So, how does one do a timelapse with this camera--is there an intervalometer that works with it?

That was done using the pan and crop function in Sony Vegas Pro 11. One thing I learned from doing this is that the editing process is much more crucial to creating a time lapse video than is the actual photography.

I bought a combination IR remote/intervalometer made to work with the NEX. I know that many people have made their own versions. This is the one I got:
