Anyone know of any script to take pictures every half hour with my PowerShot SX30. The hours have to be exact (16:30 17:00 17:30 18:00 ... etc). A greeting.

Lua and ubasic can both access the onboard clock. Lua date/time functions are described here http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.8

Ubasic function is here http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Script_commands#get_time (also works in lua, but using the OS functions is probably more convenient)
Don't forget what the H stands for.
