Alps REWIND: a D800 interval-timer-shooting point-of-view
Interval timer shooting seems easy. Just fix the camera on a tripod, switch off all automatic setups, start the program and wait to fill up the card(s).
However, I could not find yet a way to have a smooth from-day-to-night sequence. Whatever slightly overexposed setup for the day I choose, it will be too dark for the night.
I could find no software for auto-toning the whole sequence. Additionally, with too dark pictures colour noise increases and does not look good. Any help is appreciated.
you leave your camera there from day to night? where will you try next time??
If I do not find a solution to day-to-night shift I will try to improve night interval shooting.
I would really love to have a milky way and star rotation pointing at the polar star. If I organize it I tell you! It might take 5-6 hours in the night, the more we are, the more fun is!
so that means i won’t be able to snatch your camera when you are drifting off yet 😉
