Change the self-timer value #353

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Congratulations everybody for this so useful project.

I wonder if will it possible to change the value of the seconds of the 
self-timer. It's always 10 seconds. I would like to choose between 0 and 10 
seconds, for example.

I take photos with a cable remote shutter. I always use AEB. Choosing the 
self-timer option, pressing once the shutter the camera take 3 photos. But I 
have to wait 10 seconds. I would like wait 0 seconds.

(I opened a new theme in 400plus google group, but I think here it's the 
correct place ).

Thanks,
Roberto Sanz

[I just approved your message to the discussion group; we had to implement a

As far as I know, the duration of the self-timer is not configurable, even 
using internal routines; I am afraid that we just do not know how to do that. 
However, remember that you can enable the MLU option on the camera, and then 
the self-timer is reduced to 3 seconds; perhaps that is an acceptable solution.

Ok.

The MLU option doesn't work for me. I need with a single shoot the camera take 
3 photos. Using cable remote shutter and AEB the camera works that way. With 
MLU option activated it doesn't.

Thanks anyway.
Best regards.

You can also use the EAEB script; you lose the option of using a cable, but you 
can configure a delay, and let the camera stabilize. Unless someone figures out 
how to configure the self-timer delay, I think these are your only options.

Yes, I tried that and works fine. But I need shooting with cable because the 
shootings are controlled by another device.
With the IR remote controller works perfect, with a single shot the camera 
takes 3 photos without delay.
So I'm working in an IR controller attached to the camera and controled with 
cable.

Thanks.
