Sure, it's not for professionals, but I am not a professional. The only feature it is missing is a time lapse feature. My Android has an app for that, but my girlfriend and I want to try something bigger and better than the Android can do. So we looked for an intervalometer and to our dismay found that one does not exist for the D3000. Well, to my dismay. She seems to be coping. Enter your script. I just downloaded CC 5.2 and have just now tried it out and it works like a charm. Awesome. Well done. Very well done, man. When the first time lapse film is ready in a few weeks, I'll let you know and share, if you like. Hey Man,

I have a Nikon D3000 and I love it. Sure, it’s not for professionals, but I am not a professional. The only feature it is missing is a time lapse feature.

So I bought it and to my disappointment it was not compatible. I was supposed to catch some shots of the moon that weekend and not having enough time to order another item. I searched for something I could run off my netbook. This was the most simple and effective solution I could find out there. It wasn't over complicated so I didn't have to worry about a learning curve and it simply did the job. I was able to get the shots I wanted without touching the camera and messing anything up.

So far, it seems that was able to activate the camera in several modes. Well done. See http://harpanet.com/photography/digital-camera-tether Thanks for a new version of the remote Camera control:

There should only be one mshta.exe used by this script, if you see more then something else is running on your PC that uses the same technology. It does eat all the CPU on a slower machine, I think changing the tick value would help that but I've not had a chance to try it. Look at line 24; the 500 is the number of milliseconds between checking. This is too fast for a slow PC. Try 1000 or more instead. Of course this does mean a slower response to some things as it isn't checking so frequently. @Daniel : I don’t think I’ve ever run it for so long, so probably never seen the memory leak.

It seems to be a script error related to btStartContinuousTether in the VB. It finds my Camera, but there are no options in any of the controls drop down menus? Looking forward to get started playing... :-) Thanks Jakob I have a problem with this script and my D300 (firmware v1.10). It seems to be a script error related to btStartContinuousTether in the VB.

It finds my Camera, but there are no options in any of the controls drop down menus?

Looking forward to get started playing… :-)
