Lrtimelapse software3/26/2023 ![]() Where as the 2019 MacBook Pro loaded LRTL6 (21:23) just over 2x faster to load, compared to LRTL5 on the same machine at 47:18įor those of you who are running faster chips on PCs with more cores such as an Intel or AMD CPU, or Apple M1 Pro, Max, or Ultra, then your performance should be even better than mine! Gunther in his LRTimelapse 6 release video basically states that more cores, faster SSDs = better performance. The M1 Mac Mini loaded LRTL6 almost 3x as fast (15:00) compared to LRTL5 in Rosetta emulation which was 40:50. Unlike the previous test, LRTL6 performance was noticeably faster as promised! The M1 Mac Mini took only 15 seconds to load the 446 raw sequence into LRTL6 compared to the 21:23 it took the 2019 MacBook Pro. I expected the M1 Mac Mini to win (running LRTL6) but not at the pace it did. When you watch the video above you'll see the astonishing results that honestly kind of surprised me. It's pretty clear that LRTL6 loads sequences drastically faster. LRTimelapse 6 Loads Sequences Drastically Faster! This can be seen by watching the second video below. ![]() So where is the major performance increase promised in Gunther's blog on ? ("LRTimelapse 6 is released: with many new features and improved performance!") It's in the loading of sequences and their camera previews that I saw the most drastic performance improvements. ![]() ![]() In all honesty it was pretty minimal in difference. Technically LRTL6 (LRTimelapse 6) did boot faster (9:57), compared to (10:50) for LRTimelapse 5 (LRTL5).but only by a single second. You may have also notice that performance on my Intel based MacBook Pro, didn't have much difference. Instead, it is running an emulator called Rosetta. This is because LRTimelapse isn't running native. This is because it took nearly twice as long (13:34) to launch LRTimelapse 5 on the same M1 Mac Mini. Thankfully LRTimelapse 6 runs natively with Apple Silicon chips like the M1 and the performance definitely shows. This is pretty impressive, but not surprising when the M1 Chip has gotten a decent reputation for being fast. In my first test, you can see that LRTimelapse 6 loaded the fastest on the my M1 Mac Mini Base model (7:29). In the following blog, I'm excited to share with you my thoughts and honest opinion of the latest version of LRTimelapse, version 6. Over the years, LRTimelapse has greatly improved with each version. Finally my work has been used in keynote presentations, flight training and more! While I am very proud of these accomplishments, I know that this couldn't have been possible without LRTimelapse. My work has been licensed and featured in many documentaries including ones broadcasted on BBC, National Geographic, The Weather Channel and more! My work has also been used in major motion pictures as well as television shows. Mastering Timelapse photography has become not only an enjoyable hobby, but it also has become something I've been able to do commercially too. Wow!!! LRTimelapse was different. It did EVERYTHING it promised and exceeded my expectations! I was honestly blown away by how easy it was to use and how intuitive the software was. It even allowed me to challenge myself to learn and master complicated "holy-grail" time-lapse sequences with the help of "Timelapse Photography (2020)" e-book written by Gunther Wegner, the creator of LRTimelapse. I decided to download the free trial to test drive the application myself! I'm very glad that I did! I remember feeling very skeptical about this software. Like many photographers, I've spent hundreds of dollars on software, and plug-ins in the past, to only find myself disappointed time and time again. Many times software companies promise mind-blowing results, but yet many times it felt like the "average Joe" could not replicate the results promised. However I can't help but reflect on how this experience eventually led me shortly later to LRTimelapse that promised to remove the awful flicker that I was experience in my time-lapse videos. These sequences had enough flicker to make you think I was shooting near a strobe light and they are painful to watch. ![]() Why I Use LRTimelapse MY evolution of becoming a professional Time lapse photographerīefore I started using LRTimelapse (2011), I was creating time lapses that were impressive to me at the time, but honestly pretty awful now that I look back at them. ![]()
