Digital Shutter Release?

[twelly27]

Hi All

can anyone suggest to me a shutter release for a canon 1000D that I can set exposure, and how many images I want to take? ive been looking round but things get too muddled over the amount of different ones ive looked at, I don't need to spend a lot just one that as I said, I can set exposure times and amount of images

I want to take.

Regards

Chris

How about this.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RS-60E3-Timer-Remote-Shutter-Release-for-Canon-1000D-450D-400D-350D-300D-Pentax-/111049373623?pt=UK_Photography_DigitalCamAccess_RL&hash=item19db0ef7b7

Search eBay there will be some even cheaper. I have one very similar for my 300D. You can set the exposure (if on bulb) delay between exposures and number of exposures from 1 to 99 (maybe 999) and then infinity until you stop it.

I initially bought mine for time lapse images but works a treat for AP.

that's perfect! exactly what I want to do, and I do actually want to start having ago at time lapse as well so nice to know it can be used for that, thanks very much

Or more simply use a long USB cable to plug the camera straight into the laptop and use either CanonEOSUtilites (that comes with the camera) , APT or BYEOS to control things.

A much easier set up altogether ...
