Edelkrone’s JibONE v2 brings improved connectivity and new features for a better user workflow

by Leave a Comment

Edelkrone has announced its successor to the Edelkrone JibONE, announced in 2020. No, it’s not the JibTWO, it’s the JibONE V2. It offers all of the features of the original. In fact, according to the specs, it’s pretty much identical. It’s the same size, the same weight, has the same mounting options, same load capacity, same camera travel, same speeds, same power inputs and power consumption, same everything.

But it does have some new features, too. It comes with better wireless connectivity with a longer range, improved power management with auto power-off, an information screen with instant feedback for the user to see what it’s doing and can be fully wired when you’re shooting somewhere with a lot of interference. And right now, there’s a $300 launch discount that makes it cheaper than the original.

Breathtaking timelapse shows a decade of dramatic haboob clouds

Photographer Mike Olbinski (previously) is best known for his spectacular timelapse videos. As he’s a passionate storm chaser, those videos show storms that just take our breath away. In his latest video, he brings us another treat.

Mike’s latest timelapse, Haboob: A Decade of Dust, is a compilation of haboob dust storms he captured over the last decade. Yup, that’s ten year’s-worth of magnificent haboob clouds – so I’m sure it will make your jaw drop.

by Leave a Comment

It seems like there is never a week without some sort of reference in the news to the global climate emergency. In fact, just this week we are seeing reports of much higher than usual temperatures at both the poles. As photographers and filmmakers we are often in the unique position to be documenting the effects of climate change and have the potential to draw closer attention to the issue.

That is exactly what inspired photographer and filmmaker Christopher Dormoy to create this hauntingly beautiful timelapse film “Eternal Spring”.

This amazing 8K timelapse takes us on a journey through the Panama Canal on a shipping container

by Leave a Comment

The timelapse journeys of Jeffrey Tsang have fascinated me for a while. If you recognise the name, it might be because you’re already subscribed to him on YouTube, but long time readers may remember that we’ve featured Jeffrey here on DIYP before.

After a bit of an extended 18-month break from posting content, he’s come back this week with an update video on his shipping career since getting his captain’s license and what it means for the future of his channel, but he’s also dropped a very interesting 8K timelapse showing the entire route through the Panama canal.

Watch this satisfying time-lapse of pink oyster mushrooms growing

by 1 Comment

We’ve shown time-lapses of mushroom growing antics before, and they just keep getting better and better. There’s not much more satisfying than a really good timelapse video so we couldn’t resist sharing this one from Jens at Another Perspective.

In this video, he uses just two cameras to create the video, although admittedly it looks like there are far more angles. He’s done a really nice job filming it.

Timelapse shows four hours of recent lunar eclipse in only one minute

On the night between 18 and 19 November, a good portion of the world was able to observe the longest partial lunar eclipse since the 15th century. Despite being classified as partial, it was nearly total with 97% of the Moon covered by the Earth’s umbral shadow.  For those of you who couldn’t see it, Griffith Observatory has published a timelapse showing the entire eclipse in only one minute.[Read More…]

It took nearly 80,000 NASA photos to make this impressive timelapse of the sun

We’ve seen some stunning work from filmmaker Seán Doran before. This time, he made a stunning 4K timelapse video of the sun using available NASA images: nearly 80,000 of them. As a result, he created a video of the sun and its movement and activity over the course of one month, and yes – it’s as amazing as it sounds.

If you like bugs, macro and timelapse you’ll definitely want to watch “-N- Uprising ‘The Green Reapers'”

I see a lot of macro and timelapse scroll by my screen and when the two come together, they can produce something that’s just wonderful. When you add bugs into the mix as well, you get something that’s a little bit extra special, like this beautiful short film from Thomas Blanchard.

Despite describing this as an “experimental film”, Thomas combines both of these techniques masterfully to make this incredible creation. It took four months worth of patience to make and is comprised of 8K video of insects on the RED Helium 8K and 8K timelapse of carnivorous plants on the Canon EOS 5DS R DSLR.
