Hi there,
I made two different "Time-Lapses" with different modes, and I would like to show it to you, so you could tell me which one is better?

Tell me what you think :3 TY!
Needs to be more smooth
You need to shoot more frames (so shorter delay between frames) in your photo timelapse to make it smoother, the video based timelapse was fine as you had way more frames than needed. (being a video and all)
Obviously the second one is much better since you had more frames to work with. You still could have done it with photos if used a higher framerate combined with a shorter interval.
Going from 12fps with a 2 second internal to 24fps with a 1 second internal for instance.
The problem with the video one is that it simply wasn't fast enough to compress time. It was also very long. I wouldn't make a timelapse over 5 minutes unless it was covering a sufficient amount of content quickly giving the viewer more to watch. As it was it looked like maybe 4x speed increase. Something more like 25x or more would probably provide a more exciting video.
But still a worthy improvement and worth the time experimenting.

Yeah, I'll try to shoot 1 pic every second. And see how it'll go.

Thank you for such response. I'll work my way through better improvement :)
I did not know Panda Express was a restaurant chain. I miss mine...
