Quicktime pro to convert the image sequence and encode to mpeg-4. The two 'flickers' are when my laptop decided to conserve power and shut down, interrupting the shoot. Camera settings - Manual focus locked at infinity, ISO 100, F-5.6, S- 1/650 Mpeg-4 encoding settings - H.264, 8000kbps, 1600x1200(same as image size,) 30 fps keyed every 15 frames. Ive just been playing around as Im fairly new to using the big Manual Setting. Can anyone suggest camera settings that might have looked better? Could anyone suggest a webpage or offer any advice on how to pan and zoom a time lapse in editing? Does anyone know of a universal intervalometer? That will work on any camera? Does anyone know of a intervalometer that is compatible with the Olympus SP-500UZ? I hope this isn't bad forum etiquette, I tent to post things in the wrong place. Thanks!!!

    that is exceedingly cool. I love how the wood seems to sink down as it is consumed. Great time lapse!
