The complete documentary has never been spontaneous and automatic. The Brinno‘s “Self Portrait Camera” is one of the leading edge gadgets for capturing and stitching thousands of photos into a handy time lapse video(Instant video)
The Brinno camera featuring ” Instant Video” helps you captures and converts thousands of photos into a Time Lapse video as you take the photos. effortless with hands down
–Rich Data ( plan, templates, sheets, photos, videos)
There are plenty of construction project management systems or templates available. The paper sheets or electronic text data can be created, published and stored easily by current PC or Laptop. Photos were no longer a issue since the wide spread of the digital point-and-shoot cameras.
Videos are turning to be the real pains here. why ?
Power supply. Let’s face it – digital cameras are infamous for draining battery life. From snapshooters to professionals, everyone dreads that little flashing red light. Sometimes there is no stable power at jobsite and you are required to move these cameras around.
Camera setup and frame. You need to hire the cameramen or outside company to do these. You workers with gloves on are your last choice.
Video editing. This is the biggest nightmare. File transfer takes HOURS everyday. let alone those video editing and post processing.
Video playback. It’s never ending story. Fast forward could be too slow(takes forever or too fast( miss your target). Once you find your target. The pause button may just “blur”the still image from the video(H.264 problems)
Video storage : too fat to store unless subcontracting a cloud service
Video storage:10 years ago
Video storage: now:
It’s no difference. All FAT files and hard to store, share and manage.
Eco Friendly videos files

If you create the videos in the input. You are definitively suffering from the output and everything associated with
Anything other than Videos? Too big, fat and expensive to deal with? —— YES! time lapse videos!
Brinno camera is powered by the proprietary “Instant video“,benefits are
Once your video is shot, it’s actually a video and not a series of JPEGs. No stitching, no converting!
No more Fat video files created in the input, File management(file storage, file sharing and playback) is nice and easy
What you see is what you get: No more H.264 compression “blur” on single frame
Play LESS while playback with motion search on Brinno’s player, Saving playback time
Some people may insist that Video is inevitable in special occasions. That’s Correct for that 1% cases. Our experience shows almost all the events at jobsite can be just recorded at no faster than 1 photo per second.
You can also add on one the accessories of the Brinno TLC200 to make it from a fixed time interval time lapse camera to a Motion activated camera to handle different situations.
i.e. anything with movement will be picked up by the motion sensor. This can be a good fit for surveillance camera which you’d like to move from place to place (Portable)
Bonus: Can I playback the “Instant video” instantly at the jobsite? Yes, go get the Brinno ABR100 Android phone SD card player.
Time lapse video is essentially the eco-friendly way in creating, publishing and managing your construction camera videos
Fighting against Fat is a very difficult and long term painful process. How to carrry on?
belief, doc, loosing weight consultant? You deserve smarter opinion—-Weight Loss time lapse video.
Time lapse video used to be a tedious and post processing demanding photography but now could be made extremely easy by Brinno TLC200
Instant time lapse video can be easily created IMMEDIATELY on the CAMERA after all photos taken periodically. No Photo converting or Stitching on you LAPTOP. It’s an AVI file already while playing on site.

OK. the time lapse video is automatic, perfect. But the problem is how to position your body at the center of each photo ?
The secret is the special “self portrait mirror” with the Grid. so you can always align, for example, your nose with the vertical line on the grid and align your cheek with the lowest bottom horizontal line on the grid of the mirror.
If you know how to align your face, It is easy too to align your waist or hips with the grid on the self portrait mirror.

It’s been a de facto standard to hire a Construction camera service company( or rental company) to set up DSLR cameras, WiFi and record the construction job site daily images, perhaps a remote monitoring and Cloud storage if affordable. It has never been in expensive when it comes to “service”.
I’m personally preferring a much more “less luxury “way in documenting related construction site videos and images.
One of the “DIY” or “amateur” styles isBrinno Construction camera . it’s superb in low light, long term battery life and most importantly it can be merely setup and operated by the jobsite civil engineers or workers with hard hat on.
Brinno Construction camera for not providing WiFi transmission was a big blemish.
But It’s cool now by using the WiFi Eye Fi card. Do not ask me other WiFi SD cards coz limited time and resources for further searching. The only model to use is the Eye FiPRO X2 ( no Mobi)
3 steps DIY Wifi construction camera here if using Eye Fi card + Brinno TLC200:
step 0: Take out the original SD card from the Brinno TLC200
Step 0.5: insert the Eye Fi SD card ( Pro X2)
3 steps to be WiFi:
(1) DC IN thru Micro USB on Brinno TLC200 ( The Brinno Camera is said to live up to 78 days by batteries but is better to plug your DC IN if using with Eye Fi card ), It’s also available on the Brinno waterproof enclosure ATH 110)
(2) Download and Upgrade the latest Firmware from Brinno web site ( 1.02.3 or later for TLC200 and TLC200 f1.2 including BCC 100) ( version 1.01.4 or later for TLC200 Pro)
(3)Set up the “timer” to specify your transmission period

The DSLR is originally and typically the Point and Shoot camera. It’d be a easier and much less complicated using the Brinno TLC200 Pro –a long term Point of View camera and is HDR born which has the spectacular effect in Low light photography

And with Brinno TLC200 Pro CS-mount interface and its interchangeable lens feature, you can always choose the suitable lenses for your needs. Now, everyone can be a professional time lapse photographer.
How about something hard here: The Stars, Galaxy night shots:
3 Tips for better night shots on Point and Shoot camera
1. Larger Apeture ( (f-stops): f1.4 DOUBLES the light tan f2.0
Diagram of decreasing apertures, that is, increasing f-numbers, in one-stop increments; each aperture has half the light gathering area of the previous one. ( via Wikipedia)
2. Slower Shutter speed : ( 1/125 sec is faster than 1/60 sec)
Longer shutter speeds will bring in more light. But chances are if you’re recording out field at night time, there’s barely no light. What may happen is the sensor on your camera will have the Benchmark it needs in the aperture settings to have the enough exposure to be well developed.
3. Fiddling the ISO ( The bigger the ISO, More Gains you gets)
It’s controversial. Ordinary Point and Shoot cameras don’t often have the same noise reduction capabilities of their larger brethren (although they are constantly evolving) and this makes for some fairly grainy shots past ISO400. Some people like this, some don’t
Furthermore, One of the biggest challenges of night shots is the mix of the dark and point lights ( e.g. Street lamps, car head lights). It will be really difficult even for the DSLRs to handles the situations like this. Two choices here: Post Processing or HDR.
Post Processing:
Thanks to the rapid development of the Software and hardware rendering and animation technologies adopted by Hollywood film pioneers. The Post processing fulfilled by both software and hardware has been a pretty effective approach. The only problem is the money and time required ( sounds CRAP…I know)
HDR:
High dynamic range had no doubts been widely supported by Surveillance camera manufactures ( Home security industry) till the big boom of the smart phone business just now. The mobile phone camera has the biggest boost for the fast deployment of the HDR cameras worldwide. Everything looks cool except for the Mega Pixels war on the smartphone. HTC was remembered to be the 1st major phone camera company to fight against this crazy higher resolutions competition by adopting the more reasonable way of ” UltraPixel”–Pixel “size” matters, not just only the number of Pixel.
It’s the perfect solution no matter it’s too bright or too dark or even both, The HDR sensor is the one to See the Unseen.
Brinno camera is supposed to be the first camera company to focus on the fusion of HDR & Pixel Size
How to document and promote your projects with unmatched line of HD megapixel construction cameras?
Enablers?
On site users ( not photographers or IT specialiest) to document compliance and generate positive public relations and manage jobsites remotely? Weather proof and Rugged wireless and wirefree camera options provide a worker friendly solution for any jobsite?
The Brinno TLC200 has been well established as the most power efficient camera in the world. It can live up to 78 days @30 mins interval. It is still unbelievable —1.5 months at every one photo per 60 sec.
The special bundle of Brinno Construction camera might be your reliable gatekeeper at jobsite for generating
Construction project milestones
Jobsite Compliance records
In expensive DIY setups
Instant time lapse videos Effortless and free of post processing
Now this long term camera is cool as the Forklift camera.
The basic features are
To capture the serial numbers of the goods @ fixed time interval. Never miss any shots
It’s documenting the container # too to match the serial numbers
EZ setup with Gloves on and no external DC in is required ( long lasting camera)
DC IN thru Micro USB on Brinno TLC200 ( The Brinno Camea is said to live up to 78 days by batteries but insert your DC IN if using with Eye Fi card)
Download and Upgrade the latest Firmware from Brinno web site ( 1.02.3 or later for TLC200 and TLC200 f1.2 including BCC 100) ( version 1.01.4 or later for TLC200 Pro)
Set up the “timer” to specify your transmission period
1.Large area to be taken care ( large place and many stories)
2.Long period of project ( > 6 months )
3.Tough environments (Windy, Rainy, Dust)
4.Workers with thick gloves ( instead of Photographers) at the job site
5.Unstable grid power supply thus it better to be battery(or UPS) powered for important gears like cameras
It ain’t easy to perform the photo shooting under the harsh job site environment.
Wire Free is the key differentor
Currently it’s high cost subcontracting with photo firms in setting and taking the photos with the basic charges of 30,000-50,000.
Besides, Asking your job site workers to operate the DSLR for shooting long term time lapse video is not supposed to be a brilliant ideas. Why?
Thing about this: wearing thick gloves is hard to use the DSLR versatile tiny buttons, neither is previewing with your helmet atop to target your subject if not using the super wide angle lens.
Learned about the Barbie’s new Mar mission? It takes many outfits here, gloves, mask, helmet, cloths, heavy boots…so the photo shots are not the NASA’s assignments to Barbie
Remember we (Construction men) work in Mars everyday !!
Tougher, Easy to setup cameras for your next Construction cameras
Something Tougher( to survive) Easier (to set up) , Longer (in battery life) and even Low light enhancer is definitely your next Construction Camera top list.
A Super wide angle Point-of- View camera like Brinno TLC200 is supposed to be a wiser choice in terms of the harsh conditions at the construction job site.
And the Low light shots capabilities (powerful Night shots) is essential
Quick comparison in night shots ( GoPro Hero 3 Black vs Brinno TLC200 Pro)
Choosing the right Dark Knight whomakes the difference to protect your properties
Long term recording is always challenging because of the unstable power supply
I was an IT engineer before. The camera setup or WiFi access was fine but the biggest nightmare was to locate a single frame from tens of thousands of videos hiding somewhere in tons of DV tapes
The Brinno cameras are equipped the “Instant video”—-Once your photos are shot, It’s already a time lapse videos—No file transferring, Video editting or post processsing
With Brinno Instant Video technology, once your video is shot, it’s actually a Time Lapse video and not a series of JPEGs. No stitching, no converting!
