Hi
I am completely oblivious to this, so pardon if this does not sound very technical right now.
I was wondering if anybody could tell me the scope of this little project I am working on.
For an arts project, I need a triggering device that can trigger 150 DSLR cameras at the same time and then closes the shutter on one camera after the other with a preset delay interval. The cameras are triggered with a shutter release cable (basically an audio cable with a sub mini audio jack). The whole thing would also need an additional timer that delays the above shutter sequence after the trigger button is pushed.
So basically I assume this would be a box with 150 sub mini audio connectors at the back. And on top would be a trigger button, a dial for the delay until the closing sequence starts and a second dial for setting the time interval between each camera.
Cameras would be set to bulb mode, allowing to control "shutter open" and "shutter close" by closing the circuit of the shutter release cable.
Now I obviously cant build such a thing, but I would be very helpful if somebody could tell me what to expect in material costs and labour that is required to build such a thing.
any help?
thanks a lot!
