Should be a Vimeo link there, if not try this: http://vimeo.com/23681113

Thanks. That was just under 3 hours btw, so I had to wait by the camera the whole time......some boredom was encountered lol!

My first proper time lapse video. When I get home I'll finish my blog post about it, with the set-up etc http://vimeo.com/23681113 Pretty lucky I got a good sunset for once, so very happy with it.

Good effort. That could be even better if you lit the foreground up in one frame and merged them together.

This confused me too. I think the interval has to be the shutter speed AND the gap between photos.

So glad I came out! Got some awesome shots with my other camera, maybe comp entry material. Another 2 ish hours to go

On site now, awesome sunset so far! Just hope i got the camera settings right. Geddes: cant see why yiu cant download them off my site?!

NOOOOOO!!!! The worst thing you can do it put it on full auto! You need manual focus, manual white balance, and at minimum - A or S priority. I'm just about to head off now to get a sunset/night sequence. No idea what to expect, just an experiment!

p**n! How are you finding the trackpad?

It's not all about loading times though. Copying files etc shows a massive difference to HDDs

^I can vouch for that too! The turbo was massive though ;)

Just stumbled across this link: http://blog.macsales.com/10146-apple-further-restricts-upgrade-options-on-new-imacs Fantastic timing! :mad:

ASTs on my cup packed 182 (so same thing really ;))

Jay's old 206 diesel did 50-60odd mpg. His new bus isn't quite so good, despite the lack of boost! Shame to hear about your recent troubles, could be the best thing to happen to you though :)

The seek times are average like 0.1ms, whereas a HDD would be 17-18ms ish. Fast write speeds and read speeds. I just ordered the OCZ Vertex 3 SATA-III 120GB. 500MB/s read and write speeds!! Fecking fast! They're also completely silent too which to some people is a plus. Most people use...

I did my first star trails by stacking. 30s exposures, with 1s interval. Finding a good location with little light pollution is the main challenge!

SSD is the best thing you can do to upgrade your computer. Period. The dust issue is, I'm worried that when I replace the display and the glass on top of that, I'll get loads of crap trapped between it. Even if I try to prevent it, or remove a lot with compressed air etc. Upgrading a MBP is a...

Get some pics up!! I'm jealous and hate waiting!! ;)

I've just started playing about with this. There's a lot more to it than I thought, but I think because I'm trying to do time lapses of day to night, which I've read on quite a few places as the 'holy grail' of time lapse photography! If you want to do a normal day time one, I set the camera...

lol! It's bigger than that resolution!!

Scratch that! Just called a local Apple authorised service provider. They would charge an hours labour at £50+VAT to fit the drives. I think I might do this, as I can just imagine I'll encounter an unexpected horror when doing it myself!

Both myself. I've studied the guide intensely and I think I should be ok. I'm very competent inside PCs usually, my main worry is getting dust and crap trapped inside the glass.

FLOL! Just for you, I'll put extra effort into taking photos of it :) I will also take a few photos of the upgrade process. I feel a bit bad that as soon as it arrives, I'll be ripping it apart :( But I've got some nice goodies going in it :)

Well it just got a bit smaller this morning ;)

*Gulp*.....ordered it! Configuration 3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB 1TB Serial ATA Drive AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2GB GDDR5 Magic Trackpad I have already ordered another 8GB RAM from crucial, and a 2TB HDD which I'll stick in along with an SSD. Not sure if I'll use...

Well in that case I can just plug the 8GB in and have 12GB RAM :) Happy days :)

I'm just about to order 8GB of RAM from Crucial! If I do that I'm committed to it! For me, the wait is not worth it. I already have an 32GB iPod, and I will have to buy Lion for my MBP.......

hmmm.....well snow leopard family pack is £14 more than single. Might just bite the bullet tbh

What's the trackpad like as a mouse? I'm swinging towards getting one over the magic mouse.

If you pay to upgrade to Lion, does that count for every Mac you own? I ask because I will undoubtedly upgrade my MBP, so if I can do my iMac too, then it's not worth the wait.....if you see what I mean lol
