Thank you for this very concise video!
Here's a summary:
1. Use tripod, don’t touch once recording
2. Use Manual exposure, slowest possible shutter speed, also set Manual Focus
3. Set 16: 9 ratio, and JPEG or JPEG/raw (not raw only)
4. Set white balance to anything other than Auto
5. On Recording menu, on 4th page, select Time Lapse
6. Set Time Interval at least 2X shutter speed
7. Use Arithmetic for Interval/Image Count
8. After shooting, can (optionally) choose to create video, selecting settings, including reverse.
9. Can also create videos by selecting Time Lapse on Playback tab
Thanks for taking the time to write out the summary!!
you are a master guy, many thanks !
Short and to the point, no "I like the sound of my own voice" chatter. Brilliant thanks.
Manual Mode for Timelapse is only recommended if light conditions doesn't significantly change in the area of footage. Otherwise Aperture mode is recommended as the aperture can be fixed where as the shutterspeed can vary. Of course this could have an impact of the shutter interval in low light situations but if you fix your aperture and shutterspeed in changing light conditions you will not get a picture series with continuous exposure balance.
This video helped me a lot to find the best video settings for timelaps. Thanks a lot.
Nice format- love the text accompanying your points. Makes it easy to follow along. Great job!
One of the best tutorial videos I have ever seen on any subject (you talked a little too fast thought).
Thank you.
Thanks for that, helped me immensely as my battery went flat recording a storm. I got lost in the menu trying to work out how to create the movie from all the still shots I had. Cheers.
exactly this :)
Thanks. Did my first today on my 7 year old GX7 and it did really well. I didn’t take manual mode to heart and as I was shooting a sunrise the exposure shifted. You warned me. Trying again tomorrow.
Thank you so much. No frills just how to do it. Perfect
Thanks for this tutorial, I did my first timelapse with my camera today thanks to you!
Very good video. Clean content and go straight to the point.
So that's why I keep getting square timelapses, even though I'm set to 16:9. Thank you very very much!
Thanks for that, understand much better now, and I can practice during lockdown (UK).📷
This is very helpful. Please can you show how to flip the camera towards you.
Very helpful since I couldn't find this information in the Panasonic Owner's Manual.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! Very helpful! I was setting the intervals shorter than the shutter speed.. was wondering why the camera always stopped prematurely =D
This is very helpful. Thank you very much!
I just had my Lumix GX850K last weekend.
God bless!
Thanks. I just got a lumix and I like it. This helped me sooo much. Thank you
thanks for the video! this helped.
Thanks for your tutorial.
Simple and Effective. Bravo.
Thank you for your tutorial. It is very nice and easy to understand.
Many thanks. Didn't knew how to create video from images later.
very nice - thanks for tutorial
thank you, video gets right to the point and helped answer my question
Nice video. Thank you.
My time lapse mode on my TZ70 is blanked out. I can't find any way to make it active.
Very clear and helpful, thank you!
Hello, everyone, can you help me with my problem? I have lumix gx80 and when I choose timelaps in menu and then I press the photo button and screen goes off like camera turns off, but when i press photo button again screen lights up and there is no photo in galery, what is wrong?
Is it better to use Digital shutter or Mechanical Shutter? In the video you set SS to 2scnds which was higher than the interval that you set to1 second. Is it really important to have a SS that is shorter than the interval?
Ty!
i had no idea my camara could do that! it's not even on the manual. Thank you!
Thanks! This is very helpful!
Thank you so much ! This was really helpful !!
Thank you, great tutorial!
Hello, I have the Panasonic lumix dmc-tz80 camera and I can't be happier with it but I have a problem, maybe I don't know how to do it right and that is that when I do a timelapse and set it to turn on in a minute it activates at 12 o'clock. night and record that minute, when I am on the screen "Interv. Time-Shot" I have fixed that the date is one day after the current one, what I do wrong, greetings and thanks
Well done! Thanks
No Fancy BullS..... THX a LOT MAN !!! Good Job
I have been trying to get some time-lapse on the LX-100, but I am having an issue related to the battery. If I can assume this camera doesn't eat batteries at an alarming rate, I believe my battery is losing power awfully quickly. I can order new batteries of course, and I have also ordered the A/C cord that will maintain the battery directly from a normal 110v outlet.
HOWEVER, this does not help me with my current issue which is as follows: If my battery dies before the time-lapse shooting is completed, is there a method for building the time-lapse inside the camera once I have a fresh battery installed?
I have a lumix TZ-70. Any idea were I can find this option in my camera? Cause I know it's there....
Is not better to create the video manually with premiere pro? the video that automatically creates the camera is of low quality..
can you pause timelapse and resume it the next day? thanks
Nice video, very helpful
is the maximum time lapse shot image count that you can input "9999" photos? will it let you do that many?
I have GX 80 too and I have the problem with flicker when I capture time lapse in A mode. Do you have this problem on your GX camera?
hello I have some questions I hope you can help me: 1) how can I change the shutter speed 2) how can I extend the ISO up to 6400 3) in low light how could I take a video and a decent photo Thank u
More videos please for zs200
Great video! Just wondering: since I can edit videos myself quite easily, is it better for my workflow to take hundreds of pictures every tot seconds and then create a movie, or to record directly a video and just duplicate the speed of it?
I'm usually doing the second trick, but I believe I'm missing something in quality.
There is a huge difference in quality, especially if you shoot RAW, edit and create video on PC rather than in camera. Also, recording normal video would take a lot of memory card space and drain battery much faster.
Camerahoarders thanks again! You saved me again!
I took a time-lapse but i didn't set up the camera properly as per this great video. I let the camera create the video and it looked good. Later I took the images, processed them in Lightroom (I'm a beginner) and then put them together in premiere pro. The increase in quality was astonishing. I used a Peter Mckinnon time-lapse video to guide me.
Michael Lakoudis would you mind please writing the name of the tutorial?

thanks
No valid picture to play ? why? if i wanna set a time lapse video
Thanks.
Great info!👍
many thanks very helpful
Great . Thank you!
hey
i got a question about this timelaps thing
how or what settings to use when to do this timelaps the whole day from morning to night time?
cause at evening and night time it gets dark and so does the picture if i turne up the light then it gets from dark to bright again
Hi! Someone know why my G7, when I shoot a time lapse, he keep all photos separate on my card. That’s make hard to find the time lapse movie later... Thank you!
Should I use electronic shutter instead of mechanical shutter to avoid burning out my shutter?
Yes, electronic shutter has basically "infinite" life span.
Thank you 👍
Is there an option to choose slower shutter speed to create some motion blur effect?
2:10 i am confused,if i am doing clouds timelapse,i use 3 seconds interval,what is the preferred shutter speed then?thanks
Brilliant, thanks. I would like to take a time-lapse of setting up equipment. Thing is, I won't know how long it would take. Is there a setting to just shoot until stopped?
Set the longest number of shots (9999 I think) and simply stop it manually when you set the equipment.
@@Camerahoarders thank you, I'll try that
Once you are done with time lapses, what do you do to return to normal?
Tnx for expaining :)
When I press the shutter to start the time lapse, my camera (Panasonic DC-FZ82) turns off... Do you know how to solve this problem?
Sounds like a bug of some sort... try looking if there is a firmware update for your camera for starters.
Is it possible to set up the camera so it turns on at a certain date/hour to engage timelapse shooting ?
No, you can only set delay but the camera must be powered on until that times comes. It might be possible to combine it with power saver, but I haven't tried that combination.
Interesting. I'll give it a try when I get my G85. Thanks
Camerahoarders
Sooovann
Can this work with the TZ55?
No, TZ55 doesn't have time lapse.
On my GX85, I'm successful in creating a time lapse clip, and even viewing the results in camera. But when I take the SD card out of the camera, put it into my PC to view there, instead of showing a time lapse video, it shows individual still pictures!!! I once had 500 stills imported from the SD card. HELP!!!! I'm doing something wrong.
When you create time lapse clip it is saved as a video file. It might be possible it went to another folder on memory card.
Thank you, I will investigate that. If anyone has a fix, please let me know.
This same thing is happening to me! I have looked through all of the folders on my memory card and the only things that are showing up are the individual pictures.
Camerahoarders, are you able to find a way to complete the time lapse, after the camera goes into sleep mode? Rarely am I around to watch the camera complete the lapse. When I do come to the camera, the time lapse has finished, and the screen is dark. When I go back in and revive the camera, I don't see an option to complete the time lapse process. I do see that my pics are there, and when I go to play it back, it plays each individual photo, and not the time lapse video. Thanks.
Hm, I haven't been shooting long t-lapses with it yet but i think time lapse should override sleep mode and prevent the camera from going into one. I'll have to try and see what happens, I'll let you know.
Thank you. Compared to my Google smartphone in conjunction with the HD Camera app, and my Garmin Virb 30 action camera, the process for time lapse on a Panasonic seems lengthy almost to the point of not wanting to use it for that purpose - almost. Thanks Camerahoarders, when you get the time and if you see a fix, that would be appreciated.
Well, i tried it and works for me. I've set sleep on 1 minute and time lapse a bit longer. Camera didn't go to sleep until all the shots were taken. Only then is when it waited for a minute and went to sleep. When I woke it up all of the images were saved on card individually (it does that always) but I could access them as a single set and create time lapse video. Are you sure you went into playback menu and tried making time lapse from there (there are two separate time lapse options, one in record settings menu tab to start and set up time lapse, other one in playback tab to create video with an old set of images?
Camerahoarders, it sounds like you found a critical piece of info. Let me check that, thank you so much.
camera dmc-tz70 has function time-lapse?
Yes
and tz57?
TZ57 doesn't have it
hello i have the same camera but i have limited shutter to 1" do you know whats the problem or is it allright
YOu are probably in electronic shutter mode, that one goes only up to 1 second. mechanical goes to 60 seconds or beyond in bulb mode.
@@Camerahoarders Thank you. I thought it was a limitation of the timelapse feature.
But it's important to use this mode, otherwise we could wear the shutter in a very short time.
A bit too fast but i get it, thanks for the tutorial i will try this, with low ISO. Is manual focus required for timelapse? i normalle focus with afc
Yes, you need focus unchanged in all frames otherwise it might look distracting in final video (especially if it gets confused and focuses on something else other than what you want)
I will try it next week, thanks.
Hvala kralju! ;)
16:9? maybe 3:2 better?
does gf6 have this function?
No
Camerahoarders thanks for replying😁
How many hours can this timelapse camera record? Is it possible to record without batteries on the cable?
No, you need battery in the camera for it to work. Only way to make it work indefinetly is to buy dummy battery and external power supply.
@@Camerahoarders I have a PC or a charger for power supply. There is no problem with that. Does this mean that the battery will be charged all the time I record? Will it be healthy for the battery? The camera will not heat up too much?
No, I think you misunderstood me. In order to make it work non-stop longer than a single battery can provide you need this: amzn.to/2Mj1IyH
This camera does not support charging or power supply over USB while it is working, it only draws power out of the battery.
@@Camerahoarders You're right. This model only transfers files via USB. The Lx100 II already has this capability. I did not know about it before. Such a power supply is not practical.
your way of speaking seems like a prayer rather than a tutorial ...
Hi, do I need to define number of shots in my timelapse? In other words- I want to set only interval because I don't know how many photos my timelapse requires or how long it is gonna take. Will the software let me do that?
Yes, but set the number to 9999 so you'll have more than plenty of shots remaining.
Ok, so there are 4 digits available. Cool, that will let you capture longer footage indeed, opposed to for example Nikon 1 J5 which has 3 digits only. Thanks!
🤝👍
How do you set the shutter speed?
Set the manual exposure mode on dial.
Thanks but I can't work out what you are doing or pressing at the start of the video.
Is this possible with the gf3?
No.
Sembri tantissimo italiano!
