Timelapse Modes
The Timelapse modes are used to take a series of photos
at fixed intervals. These photos can then be assembled into
a video, which creates the illusion that time is moving very
quickly.
Timelapse
Select the interval you would like between the photographs,
press the big red button and Triggertrap Mobile will do the
rest! You can see the number of photographs taken
counting up next to the countdown ring.
TimeWarp
TM
A TimeWarp timelapse is a timelapse set that varies the
interval between shots. You can chose to accelerate (‘In’),
decelerate (‘Out’) or both (‘In Out’).
This causes a steadily moving object – such as the sun or
clouds – to appear to accelerate or gently ease to a stop.
It is a technique used by animators and can create some
amazing eects in your timelapses.
There are also five speeds available for selecting at the
bottom right; Sine, Quadratic, Cubic, Quartic and Quintic.
The animation they come with should give you an idea of
the motion!
DistanceLapse
DistanceLapse is like timelapse, except we use the GPS built
into your iOS device to trigger the camera every X feet/
meters, instead of every X seconds. Perfect for that roadtrip
where you might get stuck in traic!
REMEMBER
Be careful with your settings in DistanceLapse mode: Taking a
photo every 25 meters is great when you are cycling, but if you
are on board a car driving at high speed, it won’t work so well.
To protect your equipment, Triggertrap Mobile will trigger your
camera a maximum of once per second in DistanceLapse mode,
so please select your distance intervals accordingly.
DistanceLapse suggested triggering distances:
X Walking: Every 20m
X Cycling: Every 60m
X City driving: Every 150m
X Highway driving: Every 300m
X Propeller planes: Every 1500m
X Passenger jet: Every 3300m
X Fighter jet: Every 4200m
X ICBM missile: Every 8000m
X Speed of light: Every 24 km
DID YOU KNOW?
If your timelapse involves a diicult lighting situation, ND filters
could really help you out! Read more about them on page 20.
