[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 215732, member: 12496"] Yes. Interval time must include the shutter time, and processing time, and time to write the image to the memory card. Card time depends on the image file size (Raw is large) and the speed of the card. Set up a temp test, interval at least two seconds longer than shutter, maybe three, and watch the green card light, and make sure card finishes before next shutter. If not some extra space there, you are cutting it close. My D800 Raw files with fastest card sometimes needs interval three seconds longer than shutter time. If card cannot keep up, it will skip one, very noticeable with a long shutter and interval. It is not stopped then, it is just waiting on next interval. [/QUOTE]
