[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 808538, member: 48483"] Electrically an intervalometer is a switch that activates the shutter release. Difference from a shutter release cable is that the release cable requires you to hold the release button in bulb mode and time the exposure with your own clock and fingers. The intervalometer has it's own timer clock. You set it for 45 seconds, it holds down the switch contact for you after you press the button. But the shutter would need to be in bulb mode to give up control of the shutter speed to the intervalometer. There really is no other way other than PC tethered by USB cable. An app using WiFi on a phone cannot do the trick. [/QUOTE]
