D700 time lapse without a remote

Postby Thommo on Sun Sep 21, 2008 1:53 pm

Is it possible to set a setting in the camera to do time lapse without a remote.

I have a really cool idea for a time lapse but i dont own a remote

Use the interval timer function, you can set total number of shots and time between shots. I assume the D700 has this, the D200 and D300 certainly do!

Should be built in, look in the camera menu (camera icon) I think that is where it is on the D300

I know nothing about the D700 but I did happen to stumble across this marvelous video from onboard a ship leaving the port of Houston made by assembling over 2,000 images shot by a D700 using time lapse.
