Is it possible to make this slider motorized for time lapse?

I do not think they make an aftermarket motor for this unit. I checked the net and couldn't find one for you.

I don´t think so, this slider is to be use by your hands. There maybe other slider that already offer that feature and of course the price will be much higher.

I never considered motorizing my slider, but I am going to look into it and see if I can do what @Marty McGee suggested

You would either have to use the gopro remote, or press the shutter button and use a time lapse function.

The Canon G11 does not have built in time lapse capability. You would have to purchase a remote shutter release with timing capability. This will allow you to set preferred intervals which will automatically take pictures for perfect time lapse. I suggest searching on the internet for remote devices. These devices cost about$40 or so.

Yes this would certainly work, but I think its overkill for what you need it for. You could simply use the timer on the camera. Unless its candids that you are hoping to capture.

Not from the remote. You probably could if you can set up time-lapse in the camera. This just does a half-shutter(for focus & auto exposure) and then full shutter activation.

This remote is not programmable in a way that you could do conventional time lapse photography. Unless you was timing yourself and pushing the shutter button every time. A conventional corded interval remote would be best for time lapse. There are several inexpensive options on Amazon for interval remotes.

Not a good choice for this application - suggest you do more research on time lapse photography. Nikon does have small cameras that do this sort of thing. Suggest you contact Nikon - they can help. Good luck.

I have never used it with a slider but Manfrotto has an office in Mahway, NJ and I am sure they can answer that question.

return it is the best I can offer you. I have one and I love it. It does work as advertised. Not fast but does make clear and good digital images. I have been using it for microfilm in the slider.

I don't think you can. There are no knobs or levers on the machine. It seems that the speed is proportional to the amount of light? I rotates fairly slowly, since it's a display stand for jewelry.

There is a spicific slide that the photo slides sit it but I was able to "free hand" the larger slides in the machine. It is extremely simplistic and easy to use!

Yep. I've actually done a few just like that. The time lapse software by Xyster lets you set parameters like "34.01 degrees per day" or "2 horizontal rotations counter clockwise per hour, and 5 degrees per minute vertical clockwise) if that's what you want to do.

Yes. Suggest you visit the maker's website for detail: http://opteka.com/slidecopier.aspx

You cant there is no settings for that. The only thing you can do is change it to slide show picture mode.

I believe one can program in time lapse photography at various pre-set time intervals through nr16setup firmware setup. rcgroups.com has a forum dedicated to the 808 #16. There is a wealth of information contained there.

I have spent a lot of time with the unit and I don't believe you can do both. It is very specific for one activity at a time in playback. Could ask company? Pamphlet is vague and most of what I have learned has been trial and error.

Thanks! This looks great for the Mac, but a PC version (or parallel) would be great. Basically I'm looking for a timed way for a camera to come on a specific hour, and record until another hour, and then rotate the video files. Thoughts?
