Thanks Alex. Do you use 24fps or 30? Does that make a difference if it is run at 30? I used a 10 seconds gap and a 30 second exposure. I could drop that to 3 second gap probably perhaps even 1. In RAW I would need a slightly longer gap of maybe 3. I'd have to time how long it takes to save a 12bit NEF file.

A Chinese Intervalometer isn't that expensive. I got one off Ebay with a wireless remote for $69 including shipping I think.

I think you got a few of the big gun Canon time lapse guys worried now

Mike
Sure you can, you just need an intervalvometer if time lapse is not built in.

Thanks for the encouragement!

Greg.
