Time-Lapse

Okay, First things first, I did not purchase the used camera that I posted about. Last week I purchased a new USA model HVX200PJ from an authorized Panasonic Dealer on Barry's list

I want to do some time-lapse of traffic in my community. I am using mini-DV and have been shooting in 480/60i. What settings would you recommend to get some nice traffic flow with moving clouds in the sky?

Thanks in advance
 
Best all around time lapse setting for me has been one frame every 2 seconds.
A frame every 5 seconds results in very fast but not very fluid cloud movement.
Shutter speed around 1/15 or 1/30 . ND filters on and a polarizer if you have one.One thing to note however - I don't think time lapse is possible with Mini DV, P2 only.
