Im thinking because my time lapse, i want it to be bright and vibrant i might try to do it in High definition to get the best result.
Here is some HD research on time lapses
I feel filming in HD is just really nice it makes things thast little more crisp.
Again the colours are really vibrant.
Just amazing camara work and landscapes
Ummmmm WOW
This time lapse is alot of fun and is quite incredable when we see hot air balloons has slow moving gentle things.

Technique number one is to use the camera itself to do the time lapse recording for you. Almost all digital video cameras have the ability to do an interval recording. What this means in a nutshell is that you tell the camera how long you want to record for and how long in between recordings and it will go on autopilot for you for as long as the battery lasts or the tape runs out. This is what those cameras at the convenience store do, they record a few seconds of motion every 30-60 seconds giving the overall view of the traffic in the store over time.
