Here
are some astronomical videos realized using a DSLR camera and
time-lapse shootintg. The resulting videos are - in my opinion
- quite
amazing,
showing the star motions, the Sun setting or rising and other
interesting phenomenas. A detailed explanation of the techniques is here (sorry,
only Italian language), or on S&T Aug 2009, Astronomia UAI Jan-Feb
2010, Nuovo Orione Jul 2007 and Jun 2010.
Note about file formats. A large
number of standards exist, and now we prefer using video sharing
websites like YouTube. Anyway for those unable to look at them, we still
offer some alternative: MP4 (with H.264 codec), AVI (mainly Xvid codec), or Flash SWF (required Flash, be aware swf is bad quality). To watch MP4 and AVI files we reccommend using VLC.
