Awesome mike. What are the details? (interval in seconds, initial image size and compression, how compiled into video, etc)

Mike McCabe
About 4 secs / pic. (The CHDK script I have does 2+ secs / pic if everything is adjusted perfectly, but I accidentally left the ’2 second review’ on.) Image size 10MP – it’s a Canon A640 camera. Compiled to video using After Effects. 1200 pix at 30fps.
It’s not obvious from the video, but there’s a slow 2x pan into the available resolution during the video. The video is also cropped from the original image.”
Here’s a more obvious example: http://bostoncoop.net/~mike/fossil/wzltop_clouds_large.mpg

Absolutely awesome.
Great!! ( Looks like Daly City coast where I live?) I used to own an old super 8mm with an intervalometer to set the interval between “auto single frames” I hope the new CHDK for my Canon a590is will allow this! Thanks!
