I'm using this animated gif I made as a desktop background. I thought some of you might like the idea and want to make some yourself. This was my first attempt at it so the photo itself isn't all that well composed. I wish I had made more of them, especially with waterfalls and stuff. Just shoot a few pictures quickly from a tripod, using burst mode if you have it, and then download one of the many free animated gif programs you can find online. I thought it was a pretty good idea that came out better than I expected. Now I have to look into getting digital photo frames that I can display them in!

Give it a little while to load.

Pretty slick!

great idea.

Would be cool to have it on a big plasma on the wall:p

Cool idea... but if you really want high-res "moving pictures", you need to check out what the Canon 1D can do at 8 frames per second... while still focusing on a moving object!



(Obviously this was shot handheld and downsized significantly from the 4 megapixel originals...)

Cool, Jason!

Hey Eddy, I know another way to do that: it's called a video camera ;D .. 30fps!!

Don't most still camera's come with 15-60 seconds of QuickTime movie capture? You can then export individual frames to assemble in your animation if you want to turn it into a GIF. The photos will probably be lower resolution, but that's what you want to end up with anyway.

I can do animated GIF's in-camera, up to 10 frames. However, I have to push the shutter once for each frame, I think, so I don't think I can do it in burst mode.

That is sooo cool!

I noticed this thread a while ago and promised my self to post my 2 experiments in animated "burst" shooting photos.

First one is of a sunset and took a while to shoot. Positioned my camera on a rock and took pictures on a semi regular interval.

The other one is of a sculpture of a hose. I like the infinite feeling achieved by not noticing the begining of the loop.
