Im new to DSLR timelapse and now understand that the flicker issues is related to small variations in apperture when shooting the sequence.

I downloaded GBDeflicker Trial and applied it to the allready exported file just to test, and must say im relatively happy with the result (default settings in GBDeflicker). Although i would like to solve this before PP (have read that longer shutter/ND filter perhaps can decrease the variations in apperture)

Thanks!

I dont mean to steal this thread, but i have a related issue (i think).

I shot this TL fully manually with the Nikon D7000, Nikkor 10-24mm lens, f/10, shutter 1/160. Shot in raw, batch processed with capture NX to TIFF, imported as sequence in AE and exported uncompressed, then compressed to h264 with QT.

Any ideas regarding the reason for color/brightness flicker in this timelapse?

Thanks for your answer. Yes, at 720 I get a common framerate. But I would prefer to have my footage in 1080, if i could without losses in IQ.

You are right regarding testing out myself and making up my own opinion, and I have done some; to be honest im having trouble spotting the difference between converting my 1080 D7000 footage from 24 to 30, and my 720 D7000 footage from 30 to 24 (Have not received the GoPro yet). There is little or no (to me) visual jiggery juggery going on, after using advanced frame blending (as from Richard Harringtons tutorial).

It would still be interesting to hear what would theoretically be the best way to go for the very best results in cases like this.
