Temp Sensor on 5DIII

[Sean Setters]

If starting with a chilled body, or applying cold packs to it when it's hot outside, you may experience an issue with condensation.

Might I suggest just shooting stills (1 every 2 seconds should be fine) and using an intervalometer to avoid the overheating issue? You'll put more wear on your shutter, but the convenience might be worth it. Plus the recorded images will allow you to pan through the scene if you want, as the resolution will be much higher than with 1080p recorded video.

As Sean suggests, an intervalometer is the better choice for that sort of capture, for more than one reason. Lots of options avaiable, I use a hähnel wireless shutter release that has a built-in intervalometer.

Thanks.

Playing around with spf and nd filters for longer shutter opening to catch the lightening if I am lucky.

1.5 second shutter with 2 seco ds per frame etc

If you'd rather not depend on luck...
