How does one move the camera while capturing a time-lapse sequence in order to create a smoothly panning video?
Looking for solutions that works in both bright and low-light (short and long exposures) and that is easy to transport and setup (shooting outdoors on sidewalks, streets, etc) and hopefully reliable (starting over is rarely possible the same day).
Traditional time-lapse are understandably shot with a camera in a fixed position. Turning it into a video once can simulate panning and zooming to a limited extent by simply animating the crop region from which the video is made but I have seen several time-lapse lately where the pan-distance is too great to be done via clever post-processing with a single camera.
