The Sounds of Film Photography

Cinemagraphs - A blend of photography and videography

Flixel Studios is offering a new software to produce "cinemagraphs". A combination of still photography and motion picture image.

A very interesting concept which could offer very interesting effects especially in on screen advertising.

It is not a movie commercial, and it is not a poster advertisement. But, it adds the best of both. The eye catching effects of a moving imagery combined with the clear composition of a photograph.

Gadgets for controlling time-lapse photography

Time-lapse photography is a technique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured is much lower than that used to view the sequence (Wikipedia).

The holy grail of time-lapse photography are landscape sequences during day to night transitions. Difficulty is to adapt correctly exposure going from bright day light to darkness, moon light, or artificial light.

There are a number of gadgets to support producing time-lapse photography sequences. Here, two recent exciting examples.

Alpine Labs: Gadgets for controlling time-lapse photography. Radian is an entire system to not only control the camera during capture of a time-lapse sequence but also to introduce motion in the sequence.


Pico: a small and simple time-lapse trigger which can be programmed using a smartphone and connect easily to your camera.

Nikon D800 - Underwater Videography

Since a couple of years I am using a Nikon D800 camera in a Hugyfot housing for my underwater photography. So far I focused mainly on still images.

See the slideshow gallery below for some underwater macro photography from the Lembeh Strait, North-Sulawesi, Indonesia.

A more diverse collection of my work can be found in the underwater photography archive on my website www.andreasrmueller.com.


Lembeh Strait 2013 - Images by Andreas Mueller

Besides the excellent performance of the Nikon D800 camera for still photography, the camera has very good reputation if used in videography. I recorded once some short video sequences underwater. from a shallow dive at Middle Reef in Soma Bay, Egypt. And the result is very nice for an available light sequence and first try.

I do not know how often the Nikon D800 is used in underwater videography. Some other a little bit longer examples by videographer Rick Scott I found on YouTube:
