Time lapsing with an android device

In the Android Market there are many available apps which are trully just excellent in function.

One example is the Lapse-It app

Lapse-It is an app specifically made for time lapsing, the user can set the time interval in seconds for the delay between each picture, and the capture time is limited only by phone capacity.

The free version only allows you to render the finished result in 240p which is absolutely terrible IMHO

However for 2 dollars, it is worth the price to render in 720p or as well as your camera can capture.

There are other time lapse apps out there, however this one is a really nice package

Here is a short film, just to give you an idea

This was all composed through my Samsung Infuse
