Though you can use any camera that is capable of shooting time intervals, I have found that using my Canon Mark III with an intervalometer gives a great deal of control. In most cases I can adjust the highlight and shadow detail of the RAW image in Lightroom to capture the dynamic range I need without shooting and processing HDR\u2019s.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5716\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5716\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5716\" alt=\"Landscape before processing in Lightroom.\" src=\"http:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0173-266x150.jpg 266w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5716\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Landscape before processing in Lightroom.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_5715\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5715\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5715\" alt=\"_MG_0226\" src=\"http:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.philborges.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/MG_0226-266x150.jpg 266w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5715\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Landscape after processing in Lightroom.<\/p><\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">To put together the timelapses I use <a href=\"http:\/\/lrtimelapse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">LR Timelapse 3<\/a>. LR Timelapse 3 allows you to keyframe as many images as you want, giving you the option to change the exposure, cropping, color balance, etc. throughout the entire timelapse sequence.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Here is the final timelapse shot in Dolpo, Nepal:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/79155860?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0\" height=\"366\" width=\"650\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>One of the big problems of using a DSLR for timelapse is flicker. \u00a0Since, most cameras are not exactly accurate at faster shutter speeds and when the automatic lenses stop down, you want to avoid shooting stopped down (i.e. f11, f16, f22) or at fast shutter speeds when doing timelapse. I don\u2019t like to shoot any higher than f5.6 and use a slow shutter speed of 1\/30 or 1\/60. This will require that you use a neutral density filters for some daylight shooting.<\/p>\n<p>I would highly recommend Guther Wegner\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/lrtimelapse.com\/shop\/ebook\/\" target=\"_blank\">book<\/a> for more detailed information.
