Time Lapse

Amazing footage Ben! Really great!

Since you probably took the photos horizontally and you cropped 16:9 out of the originals. You might consider using the rest of the cropped out space to "fake" a panning motion from below to up top or something. I know your time-lapse already has a lot of motion in it, but you could try to make the foreground move as well. Even if it's just a little bit. I think it would make it even more interesting.

I don't see any noise banding or whatever so I don't know what that is about I do see some delays in your video though. It seems like the video is held back every second or so. Like you miss a frame or something. Could it be that the buffer in your camera was full at those times? Is it a natural phenomenon? Or is it just a post-processing effect?

Anyway the footage looks simply amazing. Please continue and show us more

Hey Jan, sorry I missed your reply. Yes I think it must have been the camera's buffer filling every now and then. I might try tweaking things now that I've got my intervalometer working (corrosion inside).

I like your idea of the panning using the original frame ratio, might try that with the next one.

The banding is more evident in the stills. Noise reduction is pretty much maxed out to get rid of most of it.
