Hi Emeric, thanks for the video. It's great to see you producing videos again. I have two Unleashed which I purchased when they were on sale. I've used the auto, timelapse and photo modes with good success. There have been cases where I changed an ND filter on the camera while the Unleashed was attached and it seemed to confuse the Unleashed and throw off the exposure. Simply disconnection and re-connecting the Unleashed from the camera solved this issue.
Nice overview. Thanks! BTW we're at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and the Balloon Museum has a beautiful time lapse by you running on a loop in the exhibit. Kudos!
My View+ just sits there too. I break it out maybe once a year, but most time I just use my internal intervalometer cause it will auto adjust exposures too. However the simpler the external one is to setup and use standalone the better. No phone required is best I think. Thanks for taking the time for the video.
Watching this in Sept. 2023 and due to COVID and other global parts issues, the Unleashed 2022 is just starting to ship from what I was told (I'm a project backer). Hopefully we all get our hands on it in the next few months after the year delay. I really like my 2018 version... very small, low power draw and easy to keep on the camera at all times, for timelapse and general remote use. The software and phone control has been working very well and no issues. The old unit will remain on my backup body once the 2022 version is in my hands for my main camera.
Awesome video. You definitely should take a look at Arsenal 2. I'm testing their timelapse mode right now and I'm pretty impressed how good it works. I think it's definitely one of the most userfriendly devices you can get. Also the live timelapse preview on the phone is very nice. I don't want to change to any other device anymore.
I have Pro timer, timelapse plus view and back unleash 22 but still not ship. I agree with you that Pro timer still the most reliable intervalometer. Sometime i prefer timelapse plus view or in-camera intervalometer if i use slider.
Great video. Any thoughts on using the ProTimer with qDSLR dashboard? I am always worried about inadvertently bumping the camera while changing the settings manually.
I use Canon 5D4 + LTimelapse Pro Timer 3.0 + qDslrDashborad.This hard-software combo works well. Here's a link to one of my recent time-lapse shoots: ruclips.net/video/_7_THc4dBNk/видео.html If I'm shooting day to night to stars, I use the Ramping feature of LTimelapse Pro Timer 3.0. The Ramping starts about 20 minutes after sunset, the Ramping duration is 20 minutes, and the interval target is 28 seconds (set according to the lens used, I'm using a 16mm F4 with a maximum ISO of 6400 and a maximum exposure time of 25 seconds).
Why not use the intervalometer that comes inside the camera instead of spending money on an external? I’m new to Timelapse photography so excuse my ignorance.
Some built-in intervalometers are limited. Sometimes you can’t change the settings on the camera, can’t preview the photo or need a minimum of 2 second interval. Every camera is different obviously, but between older models without a built-in one and the one that are limited, having an external intervalometer is better.
Love your channel and content! You have really helped me with my journey to creating Timelapse’s. I’m not on your level, but hope to be one day. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge! I do have a question about your tri-pods. Can you please share with me what kind of trip-pods I see in your videos. They seem pretty heavy duty and that’s the only piece of equipment I’m lacking. Thanks again!
Great review !! Thank you. I'm still hesiting between Unleashed, for the size and the camera setup from phone (less stress to move the camera during the captation), and ProTimer3... How long is the battery in the ProTimer3 ?
I've been shooting with the Pro Timer 3 for a full day and battery rarely reached 40%. It's pretty good and will let you shoot all day long with one charge.
My biggest problem with the Pro Timer is the fact that I have to adjust the interval myself. For a Holy Grail recording I also need qDslrDashboard. As an iPhone user not possible. So I have to get an Android phone. Much too cumbersome
What do you mean by “adjusting the interval”? 99% of the time, the interval stays the same all along. The only time you need to change the interval during a day to night is for an astro one. And then the Pro Timer 3 has an interval ramping feature.
Yeah if I figured you were talking about day to night. But why do you need to adjust the interval? If it’s not an Astro timelapse, the interval stays the same.
Hmmmm … how sure are you that those Timelapse+ woes others report weren’t simply their own user errors? It’s never failed me, but there are a few ways it can be set up wrong that I had to learn 🤷🏻♂️
I actually never used an external intervallometer. I've been doing all my timelapses with the in-camera intervallometer from my Canon 77D camera, though it's true that the auto exposure ramping wasn't good for day to nights and that the first and last images where always blurry. Recently, I upgraded to an A7RIII and from my first few tests, it seems that the in-camera intervallometer is perfectly fine, even for day to nights! So I am genuinely wondering, if you have a great camera with a built-in intervallometer, why would you need an external one?
If it works for you, that's what matters. I've heard that some built-in intervalometers were not always the best like not being able to change the settings during the timelapse, or not being able to shoot very fast interval timelapses. But every model is different and if it works for you well that's great :)
@@EmericTimelapse I realize that my comment sounded a bit condescending, but I didn't mean to be, sorry about that. And I admit that I didn't think about very fast intervals, it's true that you usually can't go bellow 1 second... But in such cases you may also be limited by the speed of your memory card, which is a whole other issue 😅
@@FueledByTime. Oh not at all haha! Yeah you are sometimes a bit limited with built-in ones, but I guess you don't shoot very fast interval timelapses very single time!
Sony Unleashed... Hasn't arrived yet. Timelapse + View... Own, never used. Lrtimelapse Timer.... Used nearly every time unless I forget it, misplace it or dead battery.

So what's your favorite intervalometer?

Thanks man! Only saw this video today. Hope you are still enjoying your LRT PRO Timer 3 🙂

I'll check it out
Thank you for the suggestion. What's the shortest interval you can shoot with Arsenal 2?
The best thing for Canon cameras is Magic lantern. But unfortunately it doesn't work with new cameras. That's why I started to use the ProTimer 3
ThaNKS.
Thanks.

Unleashed 22 will ship in December! Can't wait to see how it works.
Thanks man
Great video Emeric!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thnx for the video, subscribed ! :-)
At startup, it gave an error. I updated the firewood and it helped me)
You probably meant the "firmware" haha but glad it worked!
Great video. Any thoughts on using the ProTimer with qDSLR dashboard? I am always worried about inadvertently bumping the camera while changing the settings manually.
Good tripod or ball head and touching the camera isn't much of an issue !
Thanks so much Emeric
Any time
Thanks so much Emeric for this great detailed video.Now I have an idea :)
What about using qDslrDashboard as the intervalometer?
I use Canon 5D4 + LTimelapse Pro Timer 3.0 + qDslrDashborad.This hard-software combo works well. Here's a link to one of my recent time-lapse shoots: ruclips.net/video/_7_THc4dBNk/видео.html

In my opinion the best thing is the simplest: i use Protimer 3 and 6D Mark ii in manual mode. 🥰 always!
True! Keep it simple!
@@EmericTimelapse 🥰😊
It is possible make autoramping (f.e. day to night) with lrtimelapse 3? Thanks for video!!
No the Pro Timer 3 doesn’t have an auto ramping feature!

@@EmericTimelapse I have a Sony a7iv, do you think I should get an external intervalometer?
At 7:29 - which suction cup did you use to hold the camera on the glass?
You can find a list of all my gear on my website - emerictimelapse.com/my-gear
1:54 wow this looks like GTA

@@EmericTimelapse That’s awesome!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah. I also use the in-camera intervalometer on my Canon RP. Seems to work pretty good. What's your take on in-camera intervalometers?
If it works for you that's great then, no need for an external one. See my full answer in the other comment asking the same question!
Great review !! Thank you.

Any chance to have a video on timelapse with the R5???
But I don't own a R5 :(
The R5 seems a good camera, but the autonomy is too short for timelapse (400 photos per battery)
@@Mauricelepo you can shoot much more than 400. I own the R5 and shooting timelapse
@@Mauricelepo I had a workshop this September and 2 of the students had R5, they definitely shot more than 400 images with one battery haha
On Canon website, it's written 490 photos maximum per battery.
I'm interesting by this camera. How namy you can reach ?
Yeah I know the problems of the TP View, I have still test the latest firmware update, maybe they solved some issues
Merci
