Wow, I'm impressed! I know its out of focus but it's just cool that you worked out a setup...are you using a remote or a timer?

@shadesofgrey I hacked an old Nikon Coolpix L3 so I could plug a repeat timer into it. I set it for 99 frames at 10 sec intervals. I have pretty limited controls on the camera. I need to read the manual to see if I could lock the iso to speed up the shutter. Now that I have "proof of concept" I might hack up a little better camera. I was impressed that the camera did survive about a 100 ft drop when one of my knots came loose.

@mcrt Those darn granny knots! I figured you'd of hacked something before you sent a DSLR up into the great blue sky.

If you manage to work out the kinks this could produce some amazing shots!
