Hi there. I accidentally posted this in the wrong forum - bare with me.  I'm wondering how I could go about doing some time lapse photography (I'm talking about 7 days worth of decay in 2 minutes sort of thing) with a digital camera, if at all possible. It's a Digital 8mm, not exactly state of the art - but it serves me well. Muncher. ------------------

If you have premiere and a capture card handy, hook up your computer to your camera and set premieres capture to take a frame every, say, half an hour for however long you want. |

since with a video camera you'd have to switch tapes every 2 hours or so, i'd look into getting a webcam or something that can be timed to take a still picture every so many minutes. upload all these images into the computer, and put them together in a sequence to create a time lapse. |

A webcam probably wouldn't get you the resolution you're looking for, but some of the higher end digital still cameras have a "time lapse" feature which would work perfectly. A friend of mine just bought a Kodak (about $800 Canadian or $550 US) that does the job quite nicely. If you can't afford to buy one, you might be able to find someone to rent one from for a few days.Michael Bendner |
