Guest Kheldar Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 As per title, why have one big project (Veil) on the go when I can have two I'm thinking static DSLR 30s exposures with 30s gap. Trees / tents added for artistic effect. Overkill? Underkill? Thoughts and spanners welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 OK would appear the concensus is yes Does anyone have any technical input? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eddy Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 It might or might not be of any help but I saw a picture someone posted of the milkyway with 30 x 16 second exposures and it looked pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldfruit Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 OK would appear the concensus is yes Does anyone have any technical input? No technical input but a couple of questions just out of interest. Would you still need to process each frame as you would in DSS with darks etc or just use them in their raw form. Also what software is suitable for making such an animation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I was looking at an Intervalometer for my Canon 450D - about £55. It allows you to program in a configurable number of exposures to make this kind of movie. I think they come with software to turn the pictures into avi files. But I'm wondering if Backyard EOS would do the same - not played with it yet but I'm hoping I'll have time to sit a bit and think about these things while at Kelling Heath. Then maybe get myself organised for EMS1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
