Hello guys,
First of all, I'm sorry if this question has been asked before - can't really find a related thread right now.
I've been practicing timelapses for a couple of months and recently released my very first short film in the Alps.
One thing I got really frustrated about even now after two years is that I sometimes cannot shoot with a 1 second interval. If I use 2 - 3 seconds interval, it works fine.
I mean... I set the intervalometer at 1 second and after a couple of shots (or whenever the camera wants) it starts shooting at a 5 - 6 seconds interval - also showing "BUSY" on the camera screen.
Is this because of the SD card? The intervalometer? Do I need a higher speed memory card or better intervalometer? If so... what brand do you guys use to get 1s interval?
I used low speed and then upgraded to 80 Mb/s speed memory cards but it doesn't seem to do the trick.
I am really frustrated about this because I can't seem to get that smooth looking motion when using 2 - 3 seconds intervals at really fast moving clouds.
Please help!
Kind regards,
Robert
