19 days agoYup when I used to be into print timelapses and used my Sony A7iii, I accomplished it with a cheap relay, a cheap off camera trigger cable, a virtually free 3.5mm TRRS adapter, and the raspberry pi I was already running octaprint off of. Set a pin high on the pi that’s connected to the relay, which shorts a couple pins on the barrel adapter, which triggers the camera. Got pretty incredible results, too, but most of that comes down to controlling the lighting well.
