The new Canon camera[edit]

On Sat, Jul 23rd 2011, the camera survived taking automatically triggered pictures for 1.25h (9pm..10:15pm) with low light (late evening, only artificial lights in noisebridge), with the following settings:

  • Camera started fully charged
  • Intervalometer set to approx. 2.7s
  • Display set to turn off after 10s
  • Auto power off switched off
  • Manual mode 'P'
