How to shoot tracking time-lapse photography

tripod

A tripod is a necessity for time-lapse photography. Don't move the tripod at the beginning of shooting until the whole group of photos are taken.

Do not move and scale horizontally.

When taking time-lapse photography, can I slowly move the picture horizontally? No, because the tripod can't rotate accurately by a small angle at an average speed. Once the angle of the picture is uneven, or the moving speed is fast and slow, the picture will not look good.

Automatic shutter controller (spacer)

Shooting time-lapse photography is a long job. If the shutter is manually controlled, I estimate that the person is already half tired, pressing it every ten seconds and shooting for two hours continuously.

Use m mode

All semi-professional digital cameras have been equipped with aperture prerequisites and shutter prerequisites. When shooting landscapes, most people use aperture prerequisites, but when shooting delay, aperture or shutter prerequisites should be avoided.

Shutter speed

It should also be noted that when it is decided to take a photo every 5 seconds, the exposure speed should not exceed 5 seconds. You should know why!

Ok, now you can take your own time-lapse photos. You can try.
