Playing with GoPro Time-Lapse Modes
Starting off with the video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hH5PjKh8kxkSo, this was four different takes:
- 0.5 seconds between frames with a still photo taken each second (one file per frame!)
- 0.5 seconds between frames in time-lapse video mode (one video file)
- 1.0 seconds between frames
- 2.0 seconds between frames
Each of these were originally taken in 4K mode so there's a lot of data that got lost in the YouTube transition.I'm basically going to ignore the first one since it adds a lot to my workflow to use it and I tried it by accident.#2: 1m 33s / 700MB#3: 1m 07s / 505MB#4: 0m 26s / 196MBFrom looking at the result I can safely rule out anything that's not 0.5s. The other shots were just way to jarring -- especially the 2s one. I think I can also scale back to 2.7K instead of shooting at 4K. It's good enough without really burning up storage for no really good reason.Anyway, just some more experiments for the trip preparation. :-)
