mogens_winther Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Running an EOS 10D within Canon Utilities Remote Capture ver. 2.7.1.15 - you may specify exposure times up to 30 seconds. <p>However - if you try to run longer exposures using the camera bulp function (Manual mode M) - the camera will refuse any longer exposures. <p>These long exposure times would however be valuable when photographing <a href ="http://www.amtsgym-sdbg.dk/as/galleri">astronomical objects - </a> <p> Please - any suggestions how to make remote capturing of say 4 minutes exposures ? <p> Best greetings <p> Mogens Winther <p>High School Teacher in Astronomy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NK Guy Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 You could buy a TC-80N3 remote, though they're sort of expensive. And at 4 minutes exposure you're likely to get a fair bit of digital noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_tynan2 Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 http://www.breezesys.com/ - has an enhanced remote capture program that may be worth a look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_dowling Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Breezesys software does not do bulb mode either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Breeze's user guide says the lack of bulb mode via the software link is a limitation of the camera, and not the remote software, so it's probably impossible. You might want to try taking several 30 second captures and combining the results with software. This should also give you less noise than single exposure.
