In depth
A closer look at DSLR Timer
DSLR Timer is an easy to use snapshot interval timer that can can control series of long exposures of digital cameras as it is needed for astrophotography. For astrophotos it is usual to have series of exposures with 2 to 5 minutes exposure time.The programs delivered by the manufacturer of digital cameras usually support only exposure times up to 30 seconds (exposure control M). However, this is too short for usage in astronomy.Using this application you can create single or multiple shots with your camera and you can also set a timer to delay the capture.DSLR-Timer can be used for single shots as well as interval timer. It connects to the camera via the serial or parallel port of your computer. On the camera side it connects to the jack of the cable remote control.NOTE: USB connection can be used in addition to download the images, but DSLR-Timer does not use USB. For the connection of camera and computer you need a special cable with a simple electronic circuit. The idea of the cable is, to simulate a cable remote control by connecting two cables using a transistor or optocoupler.
