How do I turn a folder of pictures into a time lapse?

    I took a time lapse with my DSLR and now have a folder of 240 pictures that I don't know how to turn it into a time lapse I can actually watch. What software do I need to download in order to make the time lapse? My camera is a Nikon D5300 if that matters.

    Thanks

Many video editors will support the creation of an image sequence if the file numbers are consecutive. What program will you use to edit?

So thanks for reading guys, if this post sucked, I'm not sure what you can do, but if you liked it, go 'head and hit that like button, or maybe add me as a friend.

You can try the GoPro editor. It works for most formats.

I have no idea what software to use. I have the GoPro software that I use for my GoPro but that's my only camera software currently and I don't think that works with my DSLR.

How would I go about importing the pictures to the GoPro editor?

Use a converter. An online-based one

There is always Google that will tell you how to create a timelapse.  Google is your best friend.

 

And 240 photos, are you making a 10 second timelapse?
