Red means it will not last as long as four hours or shoot as fast for doing continuous high-speed shooting that is often used with wildlife and sports. Select that to see if you have green or red lights for the battery life. In addition to having a fully charged battery, the charge it will hold can be checked in the Tools menu on your camera under Check Battery. Additionally, you can use an external power supply, however, I have not found the need to photograph more than eight hours.

Adding a battery grip allows for using two batteries in applicable camera bodies like the 5D Mark IV and I find these last for at least eight hours. For my Canon 5D Mark IV and EOS-1D X Mark II, a battery in good condition lasts a little over four hours. Make sure your battery will last for the entire time you want to photograph your time-lapse. Once you have the number of frames, you can determine the possible video length. Look at the window on the top of the camera or the menu where you set the file type. Canon cameras will tell you how many frames you can take with your memory card and file type settings. Using a 16GB or 32GB memory card or larger is a good idea. Make sure your memory card has enough space to store your entire time-lapse sequence. After processing the RAW files, delete the JPGs.

You may want to shoot RAW plus JPGs so you can make your sequence into a video right away to see it. This allows me to choose any frame for the best composition or for something unexpected like a meteor. Unfortunately, I could not provide a large, quality print because I used small RAW. A client saw the time-lapse and wanted a poster-sized image of one of the frames from the middle of the video, when the Milky Way and mountain lined up over a lake in the middle of the night. I changed to small RAW file type to save storage space for a time-lapse yet allow for extensive editing. When I photographed a beautiful night scene, I used full-sized RAW files to take some still shots and I was happy with those for making a print. However, JPGs can cause banding in solid color areas like a bright blue sky and in night skies too. Use RAW if you want to make a big print, sell your work or do extensive processing, otherwise you can use JPG. You can always crop your video in post-production, but remember when making your composition that you will lose some vertical resolution when outputting to any standard video format.Ĭhoose the file type that best fits your needs.

Note that full HD has a slightly wider aspect ratio as DSLR files are 1620x1080 if keeping original 3:2 aspect ratio. Full HD is 1920x1080 so I recommend you set your file size to that or larger.

If you want to keep storage space to a minimum, you may want to shoot small JPG or small RAW file type. There are hundreds of files for a time-lapse video.
