the biggest problem with making a timelapse is that you need to either keep the camera set up, or screw around with the pictures in post-production so they line up right. i remember someone mentioning on a forum a long time ago, if you get some masking tape, put 3 pieces on the floor exactly where the tripod legs are. ohhhh, youll need a tripod also. so mark where the legs are and anything else that needs to be adjusted, and then once you get the camera set up how you want it, put pieces of tape at the corners of the frame. not on the camera, but in the field so you can see it just barely on the corners through the view finder.
simply marking with tape where everything needs to be saves a ton of headache and frustration in the last step.
