At the moment it's in the too hard basket, but I will sort some thing out. Until then I am making do with a full spectrum modified 550D.

Yes Xpro 1 does not have one. There probably is a workaround. Nex 5 owners have made IR remotes that act as an intervalometer. There is also another unit. I'll see if I can dig up the link and post later. It may work ( it may need an IR port - not sure if XPro 1 has that).
XE1 gained a port for intervalometer. Its the stereo jack. Nex 6 has no port for intervalometer although you can control it with infrared remote manually on and off (which is what I have been doing for longer than 30 second shots).

Greg.
