How to set a delayed selfie for SLR?

There are two ways to set a delayed selfie for a SLR:

1, fuselage setting

M gear, ISO manual. Normally, the aperture should not be too small. Although a small aperture can bring a large depth of field, it will also bring dust marks on the lens and CCD and diffraction of light. F8 is a suitable breakthrough. White balance is manual, which can be preset or adjusted manually. Close the fuselage for high-sensitivity noise reduction, and close the fuselage for automatic dark compensation.

Note: In the evening and at sunrise, the light changes greatly. According to experience, the maximum light change can reach 3EV within 30 minutes in winter, so please adjust the exposure appropriately.

2. Cable release settings

Just set the INTVL option (Yongnuo MC-36b), that is, the interval between each shooting. For example, shooting traffic and pedestrians in the city during the day, the interval is set to 1 s, and the shutter speed of the fuselage is set within 1 s. When shooting urban traffic at night, the interval is set between 2 seconds and 5 seconds, and the shutter speed of the fuselage is set to interval minus 1.

Example: the interval time is 3 seconds, and the shutter speed of the fuselage is 2 seconds. ) When shooting the movement of clouds in the sky, the interval time varies from 3 seconds to 10 second according to the movement speed of clouds. The slower the movement speed of clouds, the longer the interval time.

SLR Shooting Time-lapse Photography Skills 3: Shooting Process

A tripod for fixing the camera and view.

Shooting duration (minutes) = interval shooting time (seconds) ×24× final required editing duration (seconds) ÷60.

Number of shots =24× the length of the final required clip (seconds)

For example, if you finally want a 20-second time-lapse photography clip with a shooting interval of 3 seconds, then the shooting time is 3×24×20÷60=24 (minutes) and the number of shots is 20×24=480.

Note: generally shoot as much as possible. If you need a clip of 10 second, it is best that the original clip is from 15 second to 20 second, leaving room for the later transition of the video.

You can start shooting when you are fully prepared. For example, according to 24 frames of video, a 15 second video needs 360 photos. If the interval is 4 seconds, it will take at least 24 minutes to shoot.

At present, because SLR can take large-resolution photos, time-lapse photography is widely used to record 4K standard video. Many TV manufacturers often use time-lapse photography to shoot scenery, food, utensils and so on. In order to show the advantages of 4K film industry and get the video effects of hundreds of thousands or even millions of cameras at a small cost.

Time-lapse photography is also widely used in TV and movies, and its method of squeezing space often shows the artistic conception of the rapid passage of time, which has become the first choice for many film and television works.
