Things To Do While Your Rolleiflex Is Away Being Repaired #3
Make New Stuff With Your Old Stuff
I’ve been playing around with some time lapse stuff lately and all the good looking videos use a movement thing with them…
So I thought “I have lots of photo stuff, I wonder if I can make my own”
Hence the creation below. Its my own custom time lapse movement device. Its made from Tripod, Macro rail, monopod head and a super clamp for a counter balance.
It has a handle in the back that you have to turn manually and its a little jerky but with a bit of practice it might be cool 🙂 The F5 was there because I needed my D90 to shoot this shot.
See below for test video

Hey Simon, You Nikon owners are lucky. I’ve got to buy an additional piece of kit to experiment with timelapse on a Canon! Will hopefully have a go in a few weeks once I’ve bought it.

Not so lucky the D90 doesn’t have a built in Interval timer(D7000 does have one). Had to buy one from work 😦
