Good video. One comment though regarding the interval setting. I have the Vello Shutterboss intervalometer and also do astrophotography. If I take 1 minute exposures and want to have the camera wait 3 seconds between each shot I need to set the interval to 1 min 3 sec and not just 3 seconds. In the manual under the interval setting section it says to use an interval that is longer than your exposure time. This confused me at first but I realized this was correct and what I needed to do because when I tried just setting the interval to 3 sec it didn’t work.

Weird! I’ve never run into that with mine. Thanks for adding that in!!!

Rocky Mountain School of Photography I’m not sure, perhaps there is a setting I need to change but haven’t been able to find that. Also I have seen someone on another video reference the same procedure I do and another video that says the same thing you do. Yeah, strange.

Must be different depending on the intervalometer. Huh. Well, thanks for letting me know!

@Talespinner354 жыл бұрын
@@greadore I saw in another video the same issue, but it turned out that the guy's intervalometer required at least 4 or 5 seconds between shots (not just 2 or 3). Thus, I believe he didn't have to set a 2 min 5 sec interval for a 2-minute exposure; they just had to have at least 4 or 5 secs in between. I need to test mine the same way...see if it has a sweet spot.

Great tutorial. My intervalometer looks almost identical to yours except that it is the JJC brand. That's a great tip about using the dashes for an unlimited number of shots. I was actually wondering how to override the 399 photo limit on my unit. Yes, that is very restrictive - 399 photos. I was shooting time lapse of a cruise ship out at sea today and I had to do a few sequences after reaching the photo limit each time. I'm using the intervalometer with a Panasonic G7 which does have an internal time lapse feature but it's not very reliable. Actually, most of the time, it refuses to start the time lapse. But this unit works like a charm.

So 422 "likes" and zero of the other. I got some "eq" from B&H Photo today, most of which came straight from the arch-nemesis east asian country we all depend on so much, Bhutan. (No, not really. China). I got through assembling some complicated setups, and the JJC intervalometer for my Canon was something I wanted to watch a few videos on before going to sleep, and then tomorrow I was going to rewatch the best one so that I would at least be familiar with it. But look at all this free time I have to compose a review!! You're damn right I "like" the video, it was the definition of concise. It was extremely well organized too, and I could actually use my little plastic intervalometer a couple times without referring to anything but what I had retained from watching this one tutorial. Or maybe it was the single page of schezwanese-english instruction manual I tried to read, but after cobbling together a few lines of Chinese-google-English in to not one thing remembered, I have at last just two things to say: 1)Whatever Rocky Mountain School of Photography is paying you isn't enough, and, 2) I wonder if this guy made other tutorial videos...Thank you for the help, man.
