EDIT: Just realized the upload onto youtube has compressed it so much you can hardly see anything. Also it seems like the colours are lost in the stars..

This sucks lol.. Anyone know where else i can upload the video? Or exactly what settings to create the video? As in frames per second.. What format etc..

Just a mini timelapse video i have created.

You can see the Orion Star constellation in this video smile.gif

Theres about 100 or more images used to create this.

No editing was done to any of the images. Just a process of 100 images stacked i guess. Its sorta how i do stair trails..

The earth silently rotates while you sleep:

Hope you like it.

Isn't it possible to create a video like this with a whole recorded video while it's night?

I think it would be a more fluent passage if you create another video with a spool part of your whole recording.

But whatever i really like your video :P

You mean actually taking a video from a video recorder?

I dont think it will come out nicely. But then again i dont own a video recorder so i wouldnt know.

Also these pictures are 13 second exposures. So doubt the video recorder could capture all the light in.

Hense why ppl take pictures instead as your slr camera can capture as much light as you intend it to.

so how did you do it? the actual photo taking i mean

was it a manual - press the shutter every few minutes kinda deal?

or do you have some fancy timer that does it automagically

I captured about 100 images or so. Perhaps more (havnt really counted but theres heaps lol).

Each image is a 13 second exposure.

I noticed the stars slowly disappearing away behind the roof and hense why i stopped. Unless i would have left the camera on till the memory card filled up.

The same way you can do star trails. Stacking 100 images or so.

Heres my 1st attempt i did a while back.

what i mean is how did u take the pics?

did you manually press the shutter - wait 13secs - manually press the shutter - wait 13secs - and repeat (another 98 or so times) ??

ie so its a manual process where you sit there taking pic after pic for 20mins or so - correct?

Oh nah nah the shutter release cable was held pressed in. I came back 20 minutes later and turned it off..

If you got a shutter release cable you will know what i mean.

But now you are wondering how does the camera take pictures every 13 seconds or so. Its called burst mode. Use that setting, with release cable and it will keep taking photos till you turn it off.

Yeah i mean a video camcorder(?) i saw a few videos at youtube of timelapses and i thought they were just very fast videos

Like this one:

But all right, thank's for the lesson :(

Great work for your first attempt :D

Stars looks thin and thats what you want (as in the lines)

Now the next thing to do is to find the southern Polaris. So you get the whole circle look.

But well done on your first attempt.

The software i suggested will help heaps as well ;)

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
