My tests since the last posts:
Last night: I did a long sequence with 7 second intervals, no crash, over a thousand captures before manually stopping the sequence. Note however that I have had long sequences before with 4 second intervals (it crashes most of the time, but not every time), so this isn't an absolute success indicator.
This morning: I brought the interval down to 6 seconds: crash after only 50 captures. Here are the settings:
Dashboard settings
Longest Exp: 2"
Widest Aperture: 2.8
Max ISO: 64
All other settings: same as previous detailed post.
Exposure settings of last image before crash
Shutter: 1.3 seconds
Aperture: f2.8
ISO: 64
Exposure conditions: constant indoor lighting, unchanging.
So it's crash crashing with a 1.3 second exposure and a 6 second interval. I don't think this crash is due to the interval being too short. I've done far tighter squeezes with the $19 Chinese interval meter.
Let me know if there's anything else I can try for you.
