Had very bad dew problems this night, and it was a nightmare with the lens dewing up every few minutes, which shows in the timelapse also looks like i knocked the lens out of focus inbetween shots while i was wiping the dew off

Might delete this data as its not the greatest

Thanks mate, my 1st real attempts at timelapse, im itching to get out there and try again, with a lot more data as the video's are quite short, but no chance with this weather at the moment, the dew round my ways is unreal at the moment, cant wait to get to crisp cold winter lol

Thanks Jake, yeah we got another big meteor shower next month, really looking forward to it, and it does not matter if its partially cloudy for a timelapse either, so will be out for that one for sure, and will be prepared for the dew too, so all should be good

Did you just want a basic setup mate? I could make something simple up - probably cheaper than you can buy it for?

Wish my power pack would hurry up so I can use my setup

Make yourself a dew shield out of some foam from hobbycraft if it's big enough it will keep the dew away for a while. Will do until you get a dew heater
