Title: limit for timelapse mode. longer than 30-40 days
Post by: aryasovivan on January 24, 2016, 12:43:15 PM
Hi.
Is there a time limit for timelapse mode?
I need to make the clip length of 30-40 days.
about 2 000 - 20 000 shots (about the size of flash drives do not write now important to 30-40 days)
I will buy a used Canon 1100d and AC adapter Canon ACK-E10
I do not want to spend money for nothing
Thank you.

I wouldn't dare such things without an external device. See watchdog timer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer).
If power breaks without -> Lost
If cam is stuck without -> Lost
