Today I’m going to make an intervalometer for my DSLR camera using an Arduino and a bluetooth module. An intervalometer is a device that connects to a camera and automatically clicks the shutter button at set intervals.
This is useful for timelapse photography where you need to take photos for several hours at exact intervals. You can buy these devices off the shelf, but I thought it would be more fun and cheaper to just make my own.
