Timelapse - not typical

Hello,

I have been using Helicon Remote for quite a while now and have a new use case I am not sure about (testing right now is not easily or practically done) I plan to use my Nikon D850 writing only to the CFExpress Type B card and can (shutter speed permitting) write 40-50 frames a second easily. I need a time lapse that is 12 frames per second with a shutter angle between 180 and 90 degrees. I only need a few seconds of total event capture time right now.

Helicon Remote would be ideal over an application that does not run on a mobile device.

Is a fractional second interval from frame start to the next start possible or do I need to look for new tools.

Thanks in advance,
Em

Hello,
Unfortunately not possible, each shot takes at least 4 seconds. Even if we could trigger a burst series every time the time lapse timer ticks it would still take a while, and there is no such function in the software.

Thank you for confirming this.
