    Nice vids. What cam are you using? I just bought a canon a610 to try and hack the firmare for builtin intervalometer. As I need a small setup for travelling. Trouble is the a610 was bought faulty of ebay for $30 and I still have to fix its shutter.

    for these i used a nikon D70 until the shutter curtain got stuck (i estimate after about 200,000 shots). now i use a d80 which i trigger the same way. I wrote a small program for an IPAQ hx2415 that triggers the camera using IR LED.

    awesome perspective, i've never really seen how a starfish moves

    i just found out about ubasic that will let me write trigger programs like this in the camera itself... chdk.wikia.com/wiki/UBASIC

    you should think about putting some music to this btw, maybe some Vivaldi or something... really nice though.

    This is my favourite ever time-lapse. Kind of sexy in a Cronenberg way.

    Awesome. However, its a pity it has so many compression artifacts, which don't do justice to the content.

  • Fantastic, and am I correct in thinking you used a stills camera to take these time lapse shots?

    I love time lapse ... it lets you see things you just wouldn't be aware of in normal time.

    Very creative ... maybe some well chosen music would add to the effect.

    I love this. Never saw a sea stars move at all, let alone what the timelapse shows.
    Fantastic clip!
