Harles,
Thank you so much for sharing your fabulous work and also for taking the time to explain your technique. I'm sure few here will have the talent, dedication or time to try this but maybe even trying a short version might be exciting.

Nice time lapse! Always wanted to do something like this but the equipement is too expensive. Did you just use the battery grip for 3-4 hours of shooting?

Awesome! Like it ;D

I have a few questions though,

Do you shoot raw?
Do you process each photo?

I'm also thinking of doing timelapses, is a 2.8 lens necessary? Sorry for my questions as i have never tried capturing stars or doing scapes at night.

Here you go.

I shoot Manual, @ f2.8 , in Raw.

Also to add: 30 second exposures, ISO 3200, White Balance 3400K. I don't think I mentioned those settings on here.

When Im done shooting I import to Adobe Lightroom and make color corrections or noise reduction ( if necessary) then use Quicktime Pro 7 to make a .mov file, then its off to Final Cut.


Thanks

Wow, amazing - how much pictures did you use for this and how long does it take you to post process until it looks so cool?
