>>4127643when you do timelapses you can change both the shutter speed and the interval between shots.
the various combinations of these settings give vastly different results, which might be desirable both in terms of artistic choice and in terms of being objectively more apt to a certain situation.
shooting a time lapse of a sunset is different than shooting a time lapse from the cabin of a train or of a bustling streed of a metropolis.
if you've never experimented with the various combinations and built an intuitive understanding of the final result what the fuck are you gonna do when you find yourself in a situation where you're expected to deliver a result? just fucking wing it and risk losing everything?
