Hi Everyone,
I own a pentax k50m and I just bought a Neewer digital timer remote (
Amazon.com: Neewer Digital Timer Remote EZA-C1 For Canon Powershot G10 /G11/EOS 1000D(Rebel Xs)/500D(Rebel X1i)/450D(Rebel Xsi)/400D(Rebel Xti)/350D(Rebel Xt)/300D/300/300V/50E/50/33/30: Camera & Photo) . I was trying to take some long exposure photos (startrails), but the seems I am not doing something right Here I expose what I am doing and the results:
Example 1
delay: 2 sec
long (exposure time): 00:01:00 (1min)
interval: 00:01:02
Num of shoots: 4
It starts at 2 sec (as set), and it starts taking the 1st shoot for 1 min (as set), BUT, here stars the problems: right after the 1 min exposure ends, the camera stars to "process the photo" (orange light blinking) for 1 min, so the next shoot starts 1 min later!!!! the result: 2 shoots (instead of 4) of 62 seconds each and with a "hole" of 1 min between the photos.
Example 2:
delay: 2 sec
long (exposure time): 00:01:00 (1min)
interval: 00:00:02
Num of shoots: 4
No changes, the same results.
Example 3:
delay: 2 sec
long (exposure time): 00:03:00 2min)
interval: 00:03:01
Num of shoots: 8
Result: 4 shoots (of 181 seconds each) instead of 8. The time while the camera was "working/processing" (blinking the orange light) between each shoot was 2h40 seconds
THANKS !!!!!!
