I was just thinking about this today, apropos of some construction projects I have been involved in: at the time, I thought a time-series of photos would be fun to have, especially to sell folks on the next project (hey, if we can reduce a day’s work to a minute of herky-jerky, giggle-inducing stop-motion fun, it might get folks to sign up). As it happens I have an older digital camera collecting dust and I might just do this.
mod a digital camera to automatically take pictures – hack a day – www.hackaday.com:
i’ve been fascinated with the idea of taking photos on a timed basis from a car, a pet, a kite, but all the gear and ways to do it were really expensive, plus i just wanted to take tons of photos, not 10 or 20. so using an old digital camera and a $1.50 part from radioshack, i rewired the camera to take shots over and over — mounted it to a car, a kite — stuff like that.
