Magic Lantern - internal intervalometer for a Canon 1200 d


gabs

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

today I installed the Nightly Builds from Magic Lantern website with the intention to get an internal intervalometer on my modified camera. 

I followed the procedure as  suggested here Magic Lantern Nightly Builds.

 

New firmware installed and all the new feature works pretty good however I didn't find any internal intervalometer or time lapse feature to add to my main menu.

 

Does anybody know if the intervalometer is available only for different Canon version ( 1100 d etc.. )  or is there any alternative way to install it ?

 

I really would like to leave my external intervalometer at home if possible...

 

Thank you in advance for your kind respond.

 

P.S. : I wasn't sure if here is the right place for this post or rather under the astronomy software section.

The Magic Lantern website says the 1200D is not supported yet, it is in progress. Maybe they haven't installed the code for the intervalometer yet.

I need to keep an eye to their website then.

You might have a long wait. The 1200D has been in progress for 12 months.

I don’t know how but I managed to get the intervalometer installed.

Using the same firmware and installing the code for 1100d seems to work!
