There’re only 20 shots to end this project 
This week we have another motion control shot with a Slidekamera equipement, this time at night. Check out the shot and my camera settings below.
I was able to get my hand on Slidekamera full 3 axis motion control system with a beta mobile app for timelapse. The setup is quite big, because it’s built for big film cameras (you can put up to 8kg there, I used Canon 550D that weights probably around 1kg with a lens). After my test I gave them my thougths what would be nice to add. Also, I was told, that they will release a much smaller pan tilt head, typically for timelapse and stop motion. I haven’t seen that yet, but I hope it would be another interesting motion control kit for timelapsers 
We will see in a few weeks.
This shot was made using a 1 meter slider and pan tilt head (although the tilt rotation is very subtle). I took 120 pictures within 10 minutes, which gave us 5 seconds intervals. The shutter speed was at 1″. As always, I used my Sigma 10-20mm lens.
Night shots can look really awesome in timelapse technique. Also, you don’t need an ND filter to get long exposures Make sure you try one of them in your city, find a nice lit spot, interesting framing and shoot! Remember, experience is gold!
See you next week!
