Hi all. I need some advice re my D5300. I tried to do an experimental star lapse last night. Settings - ISO3200, shutter 30secs, f-stop 3.5, Image quality - Basic, Image size - Small, 100 exposures, 1 sec interval. I specifically set all my settings to as low as possible as it was only an experiment using a new time lapse program. For some strange reason the camera only took 4 shots and then shut down. Battery was full. Then I set it to 15sec exposures and it took 30 shots on interval record and shut down. I've switched off most settings in the menu that could influence the rendering time to card. The card is used is a Sandisk 32Gb HC1 Micro SD, which should be fast enough. Afterwards I set the camera to 1sec exposures with 1 sec interval and it fired all 100 shots without a problem. Could anyone give me an idea what they think the problem is? I have a suspicion it might have something to do with the card or card adaptor. I'll do more tests today.
I have used this camera for star lapses (on high quality settings) without any problems before. Would love to know what you experts out there have to say.
Cheers!!
