Due to the borrowing of the Sony MC50 for Project Brief 3, it is only necessary to get a tripod as well because, let’s face it, we just can’t stand still enough to prevent any shakiness on camera. Therefore, I decided to use the tripod as well for my own DSLR and decided to play around with its video functions. I recorded a simple time lapse video of the sunset (or whatever’s left of it) from my apartment video. Please excuse the jerky movement midway through, I left the auto focus on and realise it was affecting the image later on.

Hope I’ll have more opportunities using the tripod to take not just time lapse videos, but dive into photography that requires a tripod, as there is so much you can do with a tripod that you can’t achieve if you were just shooting straight off from your hands.

Enjoy.
