Time Lapse timer for D80

Postby fishafotos on Fri Jul 04, 2008 10:29 pm

Hi,

It's been a while since I was on here and I have a query.

I have been looking around for a good time-lapse timer for my D80, the idea is to allow me to shoot time lapse stuff without my laptop. I know one one available called the Phottix N2, the only thing that bothers me about it is that after 399 photos it stops. I'm after something that'll let me shoot 2000+ without having to go and reset it.
Does anyone know if you can set these things to just keep going till the memory card is full?

Any help would be great.

Canon has one TC-80N3. Don't think it will work on a Nikon though :)

There's always the time machine: http://www.bmumford.com/photo/camctlr.html

I've discovered that you can set it to unlimited pictures so I'm all set.

Thanks
