What does time-lapse photography mean on the camera?

Time-lapse photography on the camera is to set the camera's shooting time, interval time, total number of photos and other parameters before shooting, then let the camera automatically shoot a series of photos, and finally synthesize a complete picture according to the set time interval. This shooting method can show the change, transmission and evolution in a long time, and is often used to shoot night scenes, star tracks, cloud scenes and other scenes.

Camera time-lapse photography is widely used in many fields, such as architectural photography, which can be used to photograph the evolution of architectural night scenes. In natural landscape shooting, we can use it to shoot meteor showers, sunrises and sunsets, clouds and other natural landscapes. In the process of shooting, photographers need to flexibly adjust shooting parameters according to different scenes, such as shooting time, interval time, total number of photos, etc., in order to take a perfect photo.

In camera time-lapse photography, framing is a very important part. Reasonable framing can make the shooting scene more perfect. After the shooting is completed, some post-processing is needed, such as deleting large wrong shots and immature pictures, adjusting color and exposure, and choosing the best picture to adjust and cut. The whole process needs to be taken seriously, and proper framing and excellent post-processing can achieve good results.
