Turn one time-lapse camera into many at low cost
This is the first time-lapse video I have made. I took it up a notch and built a BASIC Stamp pan base. It has a photo diode coupled to the red status LED on the front of the GoPro. After the GoPro takes a pic in time lapse mode the LED flashes. After a half second wait the servo then moves to the next position.
You will need to be able to manipulate files on your computer very well to do this. At a minimum to sort out the photos you can script a keyboard macro to rename every other or third ect. file with a letter prefix by using arrow keys and keyboard shortcuts to rename the file.
Anyway here it is, with two angles.
