And if you want to tinker as well, all you need is this little guy:įor this year's Pi Day (3.14), I decided to grab a Raspberry Pi Zero W from Micro Center, write up a small app, and record time-lapses. The Raspberry Pi has freed me to think in new directions for computing (for example, check out my Raspberry Pi Dramble project), and it's also allowing me to expand my photography horizons. $1000+, no way! (At least, not for fun and exploration.) but would you be willing to leave your expensive equipment in places or situations where you risk damaging them? $50 of equipment, maybe.

Fast forward to 2017, and we have a $10 computer and a $30 camera that can create a wireless time-lapse device that can produce footage in any modern resolution-even up to 4K! Sure there are many cameras with built in intervalometers and lenses you can use to make more creative images. Quality time-lapse photography used to require expensive equipment special knowledge, so it remained the domain of the specialist.
