Here are a few informative links about the Canon 5D Mark III Camera that expand on it's capabilitys and qualitys. Also the users are making the "time lapse" video by means of a "Slider Dolly" on which the Camera is mounted and a specialized hardware/s oftware circuit board for programming the motion and movements on the XYZ Axis. Hope you enjoy $39995.95 is a littl e out of my reach Âand thats just for the camera body without any lenses!

Bilimoira and Pedro Olivera and other TS members have read the Declarations given in the above link( http://www.teozofija.info/Teozofsko_gibanje/Declarations.htm ) very carefully - and - whether they are aware of that the International Theosophical Society Adyar website is promoting a narrow set of "Eminent Theosophists" as the scope of the Theosophical Society? And not to talk about - the Theosophical Orthodoxy - we witness continously on quite a number of other TS website around the globe in other countries as well? (Try good old England for a much better version - well as far as I am concerned - http://www.theosophical-society.org.uk/html/about_ts.htm - But then again - the website seem to get lost in "Theosophy Orthodoxy" its section called "Introductory Study 1-8" - here, where it forwards its very own teaching on something called - Theosophy: http://www.theosophical-society.org.uk/html/study.htm )

And this can be documented from the original papers of the early days of the Theosophical Society. This is how I see it.
