\"Repurposing<\/div>\n

Throughout your journey as a filmmaker, you might end up with still camera bodies that don\u2019t get much use anymore. But instead of selling or disposing of them, consider repurposing these cameras as dedicated timelapse cameras.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

In episode six of his Cinematic Masterclass<\/a>, filmmaker Philip Bloom<\/a> makes the case for using older DSLR and early mirrorless cameras for shooting timelapse. Partly it\u2019s because timelapse requires a lot of time, and sometimes you don\u2019t want to tie up your primary A camera for hours when you could be gathering video. But mostly it\u2019s because you don\u2019t actually need a powerful stills camera to capture a timelapse.\u00a0<\/p>\n
