A timelapse I shot with a motorized tripod *(The Snailpod) I built, using an intervelometer script, on ae.

This was at Nasa's Ames Research Center, celebrating the first person in space. April 2008. Roughly 1fp5s. shot in 1600x1024; Flash doesn't do well with high res, so I bumped this down to 1024x768. It will still get jerky though...(Anyone know of a good flash timelapse player? I want variable speed control.)

I love CHDK so much! This would have been a major pain to put together without it. Not to mention airport security wouldn't let me fly from Ny to SF with sealed lead acid batteries (even checked!).

You could try deshaker for virtualdub to get you image sequence much more steady.

Deshaker is good.
Also, a friend of mine shot a similar timelapse at the Vienna airport. He used a luggage trolley, but a shopping cart/trolley could perform similar to avoid jerky movements and up-down motion.
