Videos: High Definition, Timelapse And Others.
It is no surprise that I have interest in high quality
videos. In fact, owning the Nikon d70 with 15k photos in file,
I am leaning now toward hd video.
Timelapse video are made from images taken in a long period
of time, and then played back at film rate speed. Using the
Nikon d70 for taking pictures assures an exceptional image
quality. Now all I have to do is going out and record images. I
will be busy for a long time and I need a laptop.
Here is my first homework. It is winter outside and I need a
computer close by to record images. So I have shoot trough
the window at sunset. I realise that timelapse video needs
slowly moving things and in this first try, the wind was good
for moving clouds but not trees in the first plan. But the
image quality is there.

This is a still images hd 1080-720p zip file. It contains
about 40 images collected during the summer 2005. Domwnload and
unzip the file and use an high quality picture viewer like
Nikon Picture Project.
Enjoy.
2005 collection.
This is a hd 1080-720p video from Thompson Scenium. I
suspect that they are selling Hd television and they put this
video together to show off their product.
Stunning.

This is a 1080-720p hd timelapse video. A colorful and
shapely sunset upon st-Lauwrence river. It is my first
timelapse outside the house. I used a cheap tripod and trigered
the shutter by hand every 10 seconds which induced little
movements to the camera. The iso was set to automatic and ended
up to 1600 which added a lot of noise. I am
learning.

Now a 1080-720 hd timelapse of a higway at night. In black
and white. I have discovered that the camera must be in
complete manual fix settings in the matter of aperture and
shutter speed. I had the shutter speed, but not the aperture at
about the third. It should stabilize the light steady. Next
try...

Today's hd 1080-720p timelapse was about image quality. The
video is in 2 parts. In the first part the shots are raw files
and the second jpg files reduced from 1000/1500 pixels. I
definitively have more control editing the raw files than the
jpgs. Do I have better results. See the test.

Strange object on the shots.

This is a 1080/720p sd video shots in nef format reduced
from 3000/2000. I am looking for the highest quality here.
Sadly my memory card is just 512mgs so not more than 99
photos. Did I succed? Maybe it is the best I can do.
Maybe I can find tricks and tips on the net to do better.
It is a sunset. Moving clouds above the sun going down. That
is what we had today.

Two new 1080-720p view from my windows. I have
discovered that rendering images needs compression.
Windows media 9 compress the images even if they are already
the good size. So the quality is going down. I am using
vegas7 as editer. I tried quick time and did not
find settings comparable to wmv files. Either they are
uncompress and useless or not goog enough. Vegas do not
have the .264 setting. I will look around on the net to find
what peoples in the know are doing.
