What Equipment and Tools are Necessary for Successful Timelapse Projects?
Timelapse: A Fascinating Technique
Timelapse captures changes that the human eye cannot detect by taking images at regular intervals for fast-paced playback. It's widely used in construction, nature, and event documentation, offering a unique method to narrate a visual story. Enlaps solutions, such as the Tikee 4 and Tikee mini cameras, are specifically designed for long-duration outdoor timelapses or shorter indoor projects.
With Enlaps, every image conveys a story.
Selecting the Right Equipment for a Successful Timelapse
Enlaps Solutions Customized to Your Needs:
Tikee 4: Solar-powered autonomous camera, 6K resolution, dual panoramic lens. Perfect for long-term outdoor projects (construction, nature).
Tikee mini: Compact camera, high-resolution 4K, versatile connectivity. Ideal for short and flexible projects, indoor or outdoor.
Our Tikee cameras stand out due to their solar autonomy, high resolution, and real-time connection through the myTikee platform, simplifying timelapse project management.
Key Features to Consider:

Autonomy: Thanks to solar energy, the Tikee 4 is ideal for projects lasting several months, while the Tikee mini is better for shorter durations.

Essential Accessories to Enhance Your Shoots
Mounts and Supports:
A sturdy mount, securely installed, ensures camera stability, especially for lengthy outdoor shoots.
Indoors, a lighter stand suffices for the Tikee mini.

Video Livestream: Monitor your projects in real-time periodically and share your content effortlessly.
Practical Tips for Achieving Successful Timelapses
Before Shooting:
Location and Timing: For outdoor shoots, select a clear and stable location. Indoors, adjust lighting to prevent exposure fluctuations.
Capture Intervals: For instance, set an interval of every 15 minutes for a construction site; for events, a 5-10 second interval is more suitable because activities occur more rapidly.
During Shooting:
Manual Settings: Use constant focus and exposure for optimal smoothness.
Anticipate Issues: Outdoors, consider weather conditions. Tikee cameras are IP66 certified and work effectively between -10°C and +50°C. Secure the camera properly to avoid vibrations.
