Sitting firmly on the expensive end of the timelapse spectrum, the ATLI ATL4500 4K is pitched towards professional users. By ‘professional’ here I don’t mean professional photographers or videographers necessarily – its full name is the ATLI ATL4500 4K Construction Time Lapse Camera, and as that name implies, it’s chiefly intended for capturing footage of construction projects.
As such, it’s not designed to be used as a handheld camera. Looking more like a security camera than anything, the ATL4500 4K comes with screws and wall plugs to fix it in place, and is hardy enough to be left for months or even years. With independent Wi-Fi connectivity, it lets you program it from anywhere – to the point where there’s a more expensive version with 4G and LTE, though I was testing the basic version with just Wi-Fi.
