In this video I talk about how to do time lapse photography. I cover time lapse camera settings and give you 10 tips and tricks for better time lapse results. I've made several mistakes in my time lapse photography and I hope that sharing these with you will save you time when you plan your own time lapse project. The recommendations that I'm offering in the video have been accumulated over a period of time lapsing clouds and landscapes. I'm showing you lots of time laps photography examples here. The camera I mostly use is Fujifilm X-E2. I like to use electronic shutter not mechanical shutter in order to conserve shutter mechanism. I typically shoot raw files for for time lapse and I do my image processing with RawTherapee and Kdenlive.
