Scripted Bracketing with Powershot SX 110 is

Hi, I just wanted to test bracketing and found it works only with the finger on the shutter. I tried several settings, which worked fine, but I have to leave the finger on the shutter )-;
Even with a tripod this will lead to some distortions. Is there a script to automate this (bracketing with one shot/pressing shutter)?

press "shoot_full"

until get_exp_count=C

You could also use the camera's custom timer mode for up ot 10 shots ;)

Isn't custom timer slower than continuous mode making it worse choice for bracketing? (YMMV, obviously don't have knowledge of every camera model)

@PS: the script doesn't work. It takes one shot then the display keeps displaying the taken photo with histo etc. but nothing happens anymore. Pressing the shutter again results in Script interrupted.
So I guess there is something missing between
Code: [Select]
do
until get_exp_count=C
[/s]
it works I forgot to set cam to continuous ...
