First clear(ish) night in a while! DJI Osmo Action 4 StarTrail Night Lapse

Trying a little different camera angle and so far I think I like this one better. #asmr #djiosmoaction4 #startrails #starstax #lrtimelapse #lightroom #premierepro #BeautifulNight #darkbeauty

NICE timelapse! exactly what i was looking for
what are the settings you used on your camera before editing? exposure, iso max and min, intervals , etc...

Thanks! Here are the details:
Equipment:
DJI Osmo Action 4
Neewer CPL Fliter
Time Lapse Settings:
4k
ISO 400
WB 4000
30 second exposure
40 second interval
I have it save video + RAW so I can stack the images in StarStax and then turn those into a video in LRTimeLapse, Video and RAW both get edited in LightRoom and the final video is assembled in PremierPro.

Hi, may i know if your Action4 unit have hot pixels during long exposure photo or time lapse shot? I think I kinda spotted 2 in the left hand side and corner of your image, but cannot confirm if thats a hot pixel.... I tested 3 units and all have some form of hot pixel at above 10 sec exposure, even at ISO100. Keen to know if other owners have this issue too. Thanks.

I hadn't noticed any but I haven't looked for them either. I haven't been doing any dark images so I will have to try that and see.

Hi man! what settings did you use for the beautiful lines at the end of the video?

[@DameDevilDog]

The DJI osmo action 4 saves a raw image for each video frame. I edit them in bulk in Lightroom and then stack them using “lighten” in StarStax or the same can be done in photoshop by importing as a stack and setting it to lighten. Once I have the single image I edit again in Lightroom. Most of mine are composite of around 1000 images so when I edit that final image I usually have to turn up contrast and highlights and turn down shadows, whites and blacks.
