Has anyone any experience with doing timelapse photography with something like the Brinno TLC200 Pro??
The background to this is that I thought it might be fun to create some timelapse movies of the Lewis landscape but I don't want to put a lot of cash into this and also I'd like something weatherproof that I can leave on top of a hill, for example, for a few days. The plan was to get a cheap tripod to lift the camera above vegetation and allow for angling it etc. and to put it in position when the forecast was moderate and there were no big winds coming our way. There are lots of locations like in the image below, so getting somewhere to put it isn't the problem, but I was wondering if it was going to deliver reasonable results or what the catches might be.
The Brinno claims to be suitable for nighttime/milky way type timelapse and I've seen some pretty nice star/moon/milky way video from them so that might also be in the plan as the skies are pretty dark once we get into the autumn.
I simply can't afford to go down the SLR route plus this will need carried to some remote spots, weather proofing, power and will maybe be left in place for a few days at a time so although the results would certainly be better they are beyond my means in every sense. My Lowe Alpine Sting is already full and over weight
