What a fantastic piece of programming!

I want to undertake time-lapse over a few hours, using exposures of several seconds each 20 seconds or so. This is for noctilucent cloud photography (see www.kersland.plus.com if curious.)

I'm thinking of the A460, as I don't need a super-recent camera or very high pixel images. Can anyone comment on this potential choice, taking into account the criteria mentioned, especially with regard to any suitable scripts?

Thanks very much; we all have to start somewhere, even ex-technical officers like me!

Love to know how you've got on with this. I'm planning to do the same thing- been wanting to for ages, and the cheap a460 plus chdk seems to bring it within reach.
Has anyone done this ok? Love to hear any stories, pitfalls, disasters- anything.
Cheers

Just to reply to myself- works great! Wonderful software- thank you everyone. What an amazing little camera the a460 is transformed into (pretty solid to start with, too)
