[QUOTE="Kias, post: 93412, member: 9496"] Just grabbed the app. I'll get an ir led and get one built up. Then I'll post a full review for ya. But it'll be a month or two. I have to order the camera still. As I look at the app though, a few thoughts do come to mind.When the app first opens, it sounds like it's triggering the shutter. This may not be the case, but it sounds like it! :) Onto the time lapse: The maximum number of shots is only a thousand. It should be unlimited when this is set to zero. (or at least have an unlimited setting) You should have an Hour setting in addition to the minutes and seconds. Who knows, I may want to shoot a time-lapse of tin whiskers growing on a circuit board some day. Same with the long exposure setting. Sometimes you just have to have a 18 hour exposure! Powering an LED with an orange comes to mind. The calculator errors out and unceremoniously dumps you out of the app if you hit the calculate button without entering all the values first. It should trap that error, and give you a more friendly message, and nicely place you back to enter the values first. That's a quick overview though! edit: Found it! Powering an LED with an orange. Sorry, it was a fourteen hour exposure, not eighteen hours. [URL="http://calebcharland.com/energy-from-a-single-orange/"]Energy from a single orange…[/URL] [/QUOTE]
