I shoot on 3fps many frames and than chose those who can be stiched. In CS5 and CS6 Photoshop you have timeline and it can animate frame animation. That's it I save them as gif files.

Some random (mostly testing) photos.

Triar 150mm (projector lens modified) Used 52/58mm rings and Helios 44M as a base for optical element housing. It focuses to infinity and has adjustable aperture

few test pics (Kx)

OKS6-75-1 (K-30)

Great lens! Nice performance!

simbon4o , your gifs are very smooth. How did you achieve that? Is that related to many frames or do you play with settings? I tried to do with CS3, but mine gif is not that smooth (Set No delay)

I use CS6 and there is an option to create tweens between frames which is mixed frames, than I use not fast transition between frames and I think that's all.

CS3 also has tween settings, so probably I have to play with settings until the desired result. Thanks for answer!

Thank you!
Yep! A group of local "photographers" made a weekend trip to New Orleans in March just to take photos

It was my first time there and I really enjoyed it! I shot WAY too many rolls of film though!
