Infoseite // Two time-lapse recording of a site - which s.besten?



Frage von r.p.television:


Hello together!

Should a customer to create time-lapse video.
Near Augsburg is a large box with solar panels fitted and the customer wants for his next booth along with details shots of the work is of a time-lapse video in Full HD on a plasma play.

I already have several time lapse recordings of demolition or construction sites, but never "over night", ie only time-lapse sequences of one day and then change of perspective.

Now floats me with a weatherproof box to build - with roof right in front of a glass (ie no precipitation on the disc).
Customer must ensure that I spot electricity draw, because of course no two months Battery holds.

My idea was to me a Canon EOS 5D Mark II to buy them there and einzucasen. Recording on a large CF card with all the switching interval minute a picture as some 2-megapixel JPEG.
Why a Canon EOS 5D Mark II?
I thought to myself in this way a CameraLink DOF for future time-lapse recordings or finance. If there is another camera I would be back after they sell.
Budget is about 7000 euros. So that's all buy the camera there - I do not know whether they hire is available.

Essential Question:
Does anyone have experience with this camera (or perhaps synonymous another) a Zeitraffershot long to realize this?
I am not every day on this site (actually more than once a week). I would just hire someone who has a little company to make sure that no Vollpfosten parked or when it's dusty work, he made a short time with windscreen cleaners drüber goes. If I personally go there every day can be and I will not abide by this budget. I make only a few days s.einigen video shots of the usual kind and I do not want to großartig Zeitraffershot themselves.

The device may overheat or otherwise, I have a conceptual mistake? Possible unloading the CF card is clear.
Effects on the homepage of Canon read. There was nothing about Interval shots. But I do believe that they can, because the much cheaper Nikon a colleague which may be synonymous.
I just do not know exactly how you can adjust the interval and whether the synonymous with external power supply in this length works.
Also I do not know whether the external power supply only via a USB cable or whether it is a true network device. The product is only the battery charger or car battery cable - but not if the cable feeds directly to the camera or just the Charger.
Car battery cable would be best if the camera would feed directly, because then the risk of external power capping eliminated.

Finally, the question of the exposure setting:
I'm an absolute opponent of all automatic circuitry, but I fear I must be on an automatic exposure time back because of the difference between cloudy days and sunny dawn probably too large for a fixed exposure time. Sure you can underexposed RAW files Starkt brighten, but not in the editing program - I do not want photos of 1000ende manual to date.
Is there a lighting program that jumps between light-and dark-flowing design, etc.?

Tips for would be grateful to the customer so that I can write an offer.

Wow, da hast du dir was made! Not the real task s.sich (which was already synonymous), but the requirement that it should run almost unattended!

So, the Canon can probably (and inexplicably) no interval recordings of home made, like the Nikon. Unfortunately! For this you need the remote control of Canon arrange on which you then any interval can program recordings. Unfortunately this Fernauslöser synonymous contains a battery that may be exchanged times!

For exposure control, you are probably pretty s.Arsch! Automatic, I would definitely not use it, because then for example Variably cloudy weather your pictures so only out and her sparkle, when playing a movie! But ne fixed target, which is still during the day AND night what should spit out useful, in my opinion, is an illusion! The absolute minimum you have to probably every day for one days early morning setting the same and go back to dusk for the night. But times do experiments with RAW and Fixeinstellung and see whether dus tweaking it so far that what is rausspringt Attractions. I'm skeptical!

For me, the question arises whether the Canon EOS 5DII really the right camera is, or whether something is a Webcam-based not possibly synonymous in question would be ( "Only when I close it in the bush s.die the Internet Cam? "- Exactly!). Ne Top Cam probably would have the advantage that you are using a web interface so comfortable exposure of any PC monitor and adjust could (but, synonymous here: MUST)! - HD is not quite produce, but a pretty good SD video.

Or you rent you a Turk or Tamils, helping him photographically and wear him out, in addition to your Canon sentry posts and push the exposure and the Guckscheibe to keep an eye on ... ;-)

Hold us in the loop and show the result and then, along with a Making of! Bin gespannt!

Antwort von DoBBy:

Gable nice and good! But what do you do when it rains heavily and also a strong head wind directly to the glass blowing? As brings a gable roof and an electronical synonymous heated washer nothing more, then unfortunately you see the drops s.der disc. You could have no more than play around with the sharpness that will not drop so much in the focus area. Whether the whole thing but it is idealistic as you would imagine!

Antwort von r.p.television:

Thank you first for the rapid replies.

Well. When the Mark II of house has no interval circuit, I must examine how the external trigger for my purposes is good and if you can bypass the Battery or whether they hold one weeks. Otherwise I have to or otherwise in the direction Nikon umgucken - although I am rather the Canons lie.

With the exposure time: Maybe I'm working with a strong ND-Graduationsfilter. Maybe then the automatic exposure time chiaroscuro s.Boden not so. But since I'd previously experimented anyway. The Tweaking the RAW files is difficult, because the only effective for each individual picture works (or I am mistaken). I had before the JPEGs presented as a folder with a single time in the timeline to import it. That does not work with RAWs.
Possibly even works a fixed exposure value. Interesting eh is the only time of day between 8 am and 17 clock clock afternoon s.Ende February. The night photos are emerging in the post simply removed.
No matter whether automatic exposure time or fixed value is in the Picture relaxed one days with cloud brightness jumps have.

That with the fogging of the glass, I have not even considered. They then shoes outside, right? This may be difficult.
But I think if it really should happen, I would simply remove such passages - they should not take very long.
That with the wind, I have already taken into account. The front lens of the lens goes on attack with the glass pane. Then temporarily adhering drops in fuzzy Marko area and not so very disturbing. I have this to customers already solved it and out again to short-term pollution may occur.
Since the budget is not available every day at Manpower let myself work on the spot to leave you have to just live with certain compromises.

But I will write as I finally realize Project. Could one or the other so synonymous interesting.

PS: Another point is the anti-theft device. Since I have yet to speak with the construction if there is a security guarded the premises. Because it will be hard to secure the box so that a motivated thieves NOT the camera can take.

Antwort von r.p.television:

Just because of the external shutter interval researched:
There really should not be a problem arise
First, it only costs 50 euros and secondly it consumes virtually zero power - such as a digital wristwatch.
It has a button cell battery - with lifetime is three years specified. While it is not specified whether these life synonymous with connected condition, because this is explicitly an interval timer is, I assume that a weekly stop.
It is therefore probably the Canon, because I look to the photo (the warmer colors) rather than prefer the cool of the Nikon factory setting - notwithstanding that the photos in Lightroom, etc. obviously can edit. Moreover, I can function in the video DoF special-use projects.

Antwort von PeterM:

Some has been said. Also the housing eigendlich is hardly a problem when the protection or further enough away and the glass protects you. Furthermore, the Lens unschärfe in his area of the glass pane. A recommendation could go to the glass as an anti-reflective disc to obtain. Usefully entspeigeltes glass costs around 100 euros. If no <stron available you can be with his shoe and optional battery to run larger wires synonymous connect the internal and then take the time Brück.
A major problem is at least in the Canon äteren automatic flickers quite violently, so teiweise big jumps brightness produced when geraade tungsten such as sodium vapor or other gas discharge lamps are added. One possibility would be with raw arebiten to this as a 10 bit data exchange format to expose and then on into the post to tuicken. We haten at least for the transitions of day to night at dusk arege problems with the flicker in the Picture.
When Aufstellungist of course be noted that no direct or indirect (windows) the cam out of the range brings, and in particular Entladungslamper NA Dampflamper are really wiedelich

Antwort von r.p.television:

@ Peterm

If I had rausbekommen - perhaps can give me a Mark II owners help out? - The extent to which the external power supply via the car adapter cable works, I will be the external Power supply on a large 82 amp hour battery feed. Since I do not run me an attendant that the cable Honk for mobility or a machine runs the cable broke.

Because of the exposure, I will predict different tests can not get round.
My previous experience was that in some cases an automatic times the fixed shutter speed gave better results. I hope you can at the Mark II, a limitation for the closing time to enter, if for example a panel directly reflects the direction of Lens. Otherwise, the complete picture will be dark.
Lamps, etc. should not normally appear in the picture because under the existing state of knowledge only when Taglicht work.

We have since built eg: http://www.a9-hochbruecke.de/

There is an EOS 400D in it and a small Linux-control computer, the recording interval, and the Wegspeichern of images via WLAN done.

If you interested, contact me - we sit in Munich.

Antwort von r.p.television:

An EOS 400 D to use an alternative for me would be synonymous not bad, because I already have.
The problem with this camera is the power supply. There are as originally planned only a power adapter. I am but a 12V car battery feed via s.liebsten because that experience has at least one of the simpletons and mentally there for his drill pulls the times - synonymous when the cable is still so marked.
Surely there is something to transform. But again an extra box of synonymous heat produced.

In principle, I must first commit to the filming me a picture to make of the situation, since much is still in the dark. Such a structure on a roof I would be synonymous s.liebsten order and theft protection unverstellbarer view. Since I have no info.

This approach is basically not wrong.
Although this is not a major contract within the meaning of lucrative follow-up contracts - is stupid, but if for whatever reason behind synonymous always crap out at the end.

However, no two 5D Mark II in the budget. Possible way, I will make the case with only two 400 Ds. A I have a second and is already synonymous still find cheap.

Thank you for the many tips and suggestions. Eventually I come synonymous to view the contacts on back. Now I just need more information about the shooting. Although Wi-Fi connection probably is not in question, because there is no connection. Also, I want all the peripherals to laptop or PC is exclusive, because the error-prone to increases immeasurably. I can not exactly a failure quickly to the roof's rise. I have to drive 100km. It should therefore be pure hardware s.Start.

This is an Asus WL500GP, which has for most projects of this kind everything necessary (WLAN, LAN, USB 2.0, RS232 ...) - but we can pretty much synonymous with each other hardware synonymous.

In addition there is a tax in it, Hardwarewatchdog by a separation of power and realized more GPIOs available. Sowas is associated with motion detectors and lighting control make sense.

For power supply: This is all variable - whether 12V or 230V - no problem. We have been synonymous with solar panel systems shipped.

View Camera: Here we have a good choice - something we usually take the lower price segment, because the Manufacturer synonymous with the models of semi-closure cycles hardly guaranteed. So we can easily substitute ready.

Thanks Deti

This had me interested. We have time for small things with Via Epia boards worked and the price was always right performance moderately interesting. (PC or in the BUS (terminal) Touchpanels etc)
