How to get rid of stutter??anyone? - Franck P - 2016-07-12

Hello Gunther, Hello everyone.
Does anybody experience that horrible stutter/jitter like on that sequence.
The movement doesn't seem to be too fast, there's 564 frame for 2 feet of dolly, shot at 1/50sec to 1/5 of a second.
Aperture at F/14.0 all the way, no ND filter on it.
If anybody has a solution for that, it would be greatly appreciated...and it could take me further down the road for more time-lapses.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Franck, I can only see flickering in the sky region of the sequence, no stuttering on the slide action, I assume that you did do a "deflickering" after loading the "Visual Previews" and smoothed the green curve.

regards,

Rodrigo

Don't see jitter too, only fliker. Make sure to set a reference area to the sky and use visual deflicker then to get rid of it.

well maybe it's the vimeo compression but when I was looking at the sequence ...the spikes from the fence looked jittery between each frame...like it's not fluid at all....and I agree on the sky
I'll check that, thanks everyone

    Well I used deflicker as you said Gunther....
The jittery on the fence seems to be less noticeable.....but the flickering in the sky is still present
Am I missing something?

You could do one or two "refine" passes on the visual deflicker. Just click on "Visual deflicker again" and apply "refine". You can do this until the curve is smooth.
In any case: make sure, that you have installed the latest Adobe DNG Converter on your system, otherwise you might get problems! (link on http://lrtimelapse.com/install )

Thanks Gunther, \
I did all the refines I can..... and latest DNG is installed.
I'll try to upload the "new" version

Sometimes, if you edit too much in Lightroom, especial with "non-linear" tools, lightroom will introduce contrast flicker that cannot easily be removed, see this article: http://lrtimelapse.com/news/use-the-new-dehaze-with-care-on-time-lapses/

I'm under Lightroom 3....
maybe a bit too old?

I do not recommend using LR3 anymore. But if you do, you have to set the process mode to "LR3" in the LRTimelapse settings, but you'll definitely get better results with the newer process version "2012" introduced with LR4. I'd recommend upgrading to the latest lightroom (6 or CC).
