Timelapse Astrophotography
10 timelapse photography tips:
1) Use a solid tripod.
2) Ensure there will be motion. Usually motion in the foreground and sky is better.
3) Ensure in fixed objects are positioned well compositionally.
4) Set proper interval using an intervalometer or in-camera timer.
5) Ensure you are capturing in RAW to be able to recover the most detail (dynamic range).
6) Use your camera's manual focus to ensure proper clarity throughout the composition.
7) Choose exposure, aperture, and ISO that effectively exposes both foreground and sky.
8) Double check exposure using the histogram.
9) Double check that all key settings like white balance, focus, etc are fixed.
10) Determine the time it will take to capture timelapse duration you need. Formula: capture time = (desired duration in seconds) x (frames per second) x (interval or exposure duration)
Do you have any additional tips that you would add here?
