I am trying to create a time lapse video segment in iMovie 13. I imported my photos and I am trying to change the timing of each photo. The lowest time segment I can get to is 0.2 seconds. Is there a better way to accomplish this?
OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
I believe that 0.2 s is about the shortest clip you can create in iMovie 10. Quicktme Player 7 is a better tool to use
See section 4 in:

for more info.
You can also do it in Final Cut Pro where the minimum clip is 1 frame. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m42RFFJ9QW0
I have not done any timelapse videos myself - others may have more suggestions

I hate answering my own question, but I figured it out on my own. I movie 13 will only allow you to reduce the time interval for photos to a minimum 0.2 seconds. I could never figure a way around this. I did find a free app on the Mac App Store called Zeitraffer. This was very easy to use. Put your photo stack in a folder, pick the folder and then hit export. Then name your video, decide how many Frames per Second (Frame Rate) that you want (I like 24) and output size (resolution: 1080p would be 1920 x 1080). hit go and your movie is made in a few minutes. From here import this movie into iMovie so you can add it to the rest of your project.
