rpi-timelapse

A timelapse camera controller for Raspberry Pi and Canon EOS 350d (should work with any camera supported by gphoto2 with minor tweaks), with an optional UI and controls on the Adafruit LCD Pi plate.

rpi-timelapse uses gphoto2 and imagemagick. To install these dependencies on your pi:

$ sudo apt-get install gphoto2
$ sudo apt-get install imagemagick

Run

python tl.py

Run on boot

Follow the instructions at http://learn.adafruit.com/drive-a-16x2-lcd-directly-with-a-raspberry-pi/init-script using timelapse file from this repo instead of lcd.
