Hi All,
Firstly, a big thank you to Gunther and the LRTimelapse team along with those at QDSLR. This combination with my 5d mrk III has revolutionised my time-lapses making them professional quality and even earning me a few commissions.
I am now looking to to make a step forward by adding some movement with the help of a slider, preferably a 3 axis - Pan, tilt and slide movement.
My issue is that my 5d mrkIII does not have wifi (I am aware its an addition I can make) and I use the USB port on the camera to trigger and monitor the reference images. So adding a slider which would trigger the camera through USB would remove my capabilities to monitor it through QDSLR time-lapse and control the exposure using the Auto Holy Grail Method.
I am at a loss as a work around for this. I would not like to upgrade my camera as I am quite emotionally attached to it (silly I know, but true) and there are financially obstacles at play.
Has anyone any experience with making this work? Any advice is much appreciate.
Thanks,
Richard
