free time lapse photography software for a while now and finally found Perios. Perios is a tiny download and very, very simple to use.
For my first movie I set the software to record one frame every five seconds but I feel I need to continue experimenting for improved results. Once the software captures all the still pics you have to export them as a movie file. I then added all the credits and music in Movie Maker. Too easy!!!
The only hassle I had with the software was trying to get it to work with a webcam. I eventually just stuck with the built in camera in my laptop.
