Ever
wanted to take super realistic Videos of events that take a long time to happen
or happen too quickly or too slowly to observe in real time?
Well
this latest App from Instagram called Hyperlapse
from Instagram does exactly that as it’s great for Nature photography as
stated in “Hyperlapse
For iPhone Will Revolutionize Wildlife Films”, published 8/29/2014 @ 4:00PM

Hyperlapse app aims for smooth time-lapse Video, published August 26, 2014 8:59 AM PDT by Lexy Savvides,

Specifically
made for the Apple iPhone, it’s got some serious Press Release treatment by
Facebook-owned Instagram on their blog article Introducing
Hyperlapse from Instagram
Hyperlapse App time
Lapse Videos – Apple iPhone Amateur Wildlife photographers filming Nature
Hyperlapse
from Instagram App basically records events that occur over a long time
scale and compressed the film into a shorter time faster than normal speed. You
can choose how fast to playback the event, which is can be up to 12 times
normal speed then save the clip and share to Facebook, Twitter or even
Instagram.
Being
as this is a time-lapse filming App made by Instagram, expect that it comes
with some filters to allow you to edit the final film before posting it for the
whole world to see. It'll be great for filming wildlife scenes that occur over
a long timescale, such as ants carrying a dead butterfly, wasps building a nest
or the blossoming of a Hibiscus flower.

This
App will basically bring out the Wildlife photographer in all of us using your
Apple iPhone and a decent Tripod to keep the camera steady. This might not be
necessary though, as the Hyperlapse
from Instagram App comes with time-lapse Video Stabilization Technology as
described in “How
to Shoot Hyperlapse Videos Without Making People Sick”, published 08.26.14 6:57 PM BY TIM MOYNIHAN, Wired.
Hyperlapse will spawn
Wildlife filming – Apple iPhone getting a boost among Biologists
It
won't be long before Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and especially YouTube
becomes populated with short films showing natural events sped up in real-time
as amateur Wildlife filmmakers use the App to film what they see. It might
offer new insights into events that regularly happen around us, something Biologists
toting their Apple iPhones will especially appreciate.

My
main grouse with Hyperlapse
from Instagram is the stated limitation on Videos, which is limited both by
the memory of the Apple iPhone and the Battery life. In the case of the Apple
iPhone 5 it's 45 minutes and in the case of the Apple iPhone 4 is 10 minutes. Also
there no option to save the original long Video; once you press Save, that’s
gone and you’re left with the time-lapse Video!
 |
As
for memory, simply backup your Hyperlapse
from Instagram Videos to Apple iCloud or even Dropbox’s iOS App Loom, both
of which have ample Cloud storage for a price as explained in my Geezam blog article entitled “Dropbox
acquires iOS App Loom as it steamrolls towards the launch of its IPO”.
Now
if Instagram could only make an App that records super fast events then slow
them down to real time, like a multiple-Lightning Strike as shown below!

Still
it's one more reason to get an Apple iPhone, even the new Apple iPhone 6, if
only to see the beauty of a flower unfolding before you in real-time.
Best
of all there’s tons of resources to help you to make the perfect time lapse Videos,
especially from CNET News as per their
articles “Get
started with Instagram's Hyperlapse app”, published August 26, 2014 12:09

quick photo primer on Instagram's Hyperlapse app”, published August 26,
