Winter Storm Jonas Time lapse

This year the East Coast got hit by Winter Storm Jonas. We received here in New Jersey around two feet of snow. The Friday of the storm I decided to put my GoPro outside on the patio to see if I could get a time lapse of the snow building up.

What I didn't expect was the GoPro to get completely buried with snow. I decided to leave it out there over two nights to capture the snow melting. The only issue I ran into was I originally had the settings to take a shot every 10 seconds. With that the memory card (32gb new 64gb on the way lol) filled up making me dig it out and dump it. When I put it back out I didn't get the angle exactly the same but I like the second angle better. Oh Well. Also I cut a lot of the middle out due to the video being over 12 minutes long. I cut it down to 5 minutes which I think is more then enough.

Coming out tomorrow!

Ok so my first try at making a Tutorial comes out on YouTube tomorrow. It's a Time-Lapse Tutorial I shot to teach people who want to get into time-lapse a starting point. It goes from how I set the camera up to the gear you will need to how I post processes the images.

I also shot one with my D5200 to show another way you can make a time-lapse with the build in timer. That one will be coming out Wednesday. 

I am looking to make more soon too like, long exposure, landscape, more gear reviews, and others. If you have a suggestion on a video you would like to see me make please let me know.

GoPro Hero4 Silver Night Lapse Test 2

This is the second test of the GoPro Hero4 Silver Editions Night-Lapse feature. Like in the first test there is still some flare from light sources. Also it has more grain in the picture compared to the other test. I'll have to try again and see if I can get it right on the third try.

Nikon D5200 Time-Lapse Test Decision

I just got my Nikon D5200 back from a friend that was borrowing it. I decided to take it out and shoot some time-lapse to see what the quality was like. I am trying to decide if I want to make this my time-lapse work horse to keep the shutter actuations down on my D800.

Take a look and let me know what you think. Thumbs Up to keep going with the D5200 or Thumbs Down to go with the D800. If you want to see a time-lapse from the D800 to compare let me know in the comments below.

Two Day Time-Lapse

I decided to put my GoPro outside to try to catch the sunrise. I rigged it to an extension cord so it would have a constant power source so the battery would not die mid way through. It worked and when I got up decided to leave it out there for two days instead of just overnight.

The only issue was I ended up reading the app on my phone wrong and positioned it facing the wrong direction. Otherwise it worked and the GoPro lasted and could have gone longer if I wanted it too. I had it set for one shot every 10 seconds for the total of 16,931 pictures.

(sorry for the long video, I'll cut any more long ones down in the future)

Rancocas Nature Center TL Vblog

On my latest trip to the Rancocas Nature Center I decided to do some time-lapse with my Nikon D800 and GoPro Hero3. I made this quick video and added in the time-lapse that I did to it. They both came out "ok". I feel they could have been better if I was able to get there at a different time of the day and had more time to set up.

Let me know what you think by leaving a comment below.
