V0.3 Beta 9 - Moco

Post by KayR »

Hi,

finally the NMX-Controller is working on Andoid :D
But at least in my case not proberly. I can control the Slider/Pan/Tilt motors and set all keyframes, but when starting the programm it doesn´t move at all and no picture is taken. When starting LRTimelapse mode it is working proberly. Am I doing something wrong, or still work in progress the MoCo?
It´s planned when starting LRT that the NMX-controller will start the programm as well? That would be great :roll:

Tablet (Nexus 7) connected via USB-OTG-cable to the camera (EOS 7D), NMX-Controller via Bluetooth to the tablet

Will check it, should work.
Can you make a screenshoot of the NMX screen before you start the program?

Sorry, taking the screenshot with my device seems not to work the way it should as well.
Is that the right screenshot?

Yep, but it so tiny that I don't see anything. :(
Anyway I think know what the problem is.
Presume you use Timelapse SMS, before setting it up you should click the 'video' checkbox and then again the 'timelapse sms' checkbox.

Now it is working :-) perfect.
How about my second questions? Will LRT and MoCo will or do they work somehow together?

It would be great if finding a solution. Just one tablet for controlling a 3-axis motion controlled timelapse with "holy grail". You would make my dreams come true 8-)

I'm thinking the same as KayR. Would be great if LRT and MoCo work together.

If it isn't possible to integrate LRTimelapse option with the Interval Controller would the following be possible?

Add a new "exposure" channel were we could set the camera speed and iso at various points.

This of course presumes that the future exposures can be predicted in advance but, in practice, these are often known. E.g. during a sunset to night time lapse, the end values at Astronomical sunset on a moon less night I know that I will end up at 25 secs ISO 3200. I also know, from previous TLs, the values at sunset, civil sunset and nautical sunset. I have a similar set of values for full moon, half moon and city lights. Apps such as TPE will tell me the times of these 4 "sunsets" Therefore I can enter these into the IC screen. Plot a curve between these points and, I suspect, that this will be sufficient.

What would be great would be to be able to save these channel definitions.
