Please contact us for more information on current supported cameras.
We don’t recommend using an unsupported camera as we cannot guarantee its performance with the Timelapse X Pro controller.
Cameras not listed above might function with the Timelapse X Pro controller, however they have not been tested or have failed compatibility tests.
Contact us to discuss your requirements if you would like to use an unsupported camera.
Yes, though for a range of good reasons we recommend using an APS-C camera. Please contact us for more advice and in-depth discussion.
The regular Timelapse X Pro housing is designed for APS-C cameras and will not accommodate all full-frame camera and lens combinations. If you do wish to use a full frame camera, contact us for more information about our larger ‘Beast’ housing.
Yes, though you may need to use our larger ‘Beast’ housing. The regular Timelapse X Pro housing can accommodate the average APS-C kit zoom lens, but other lenses may be too long.
Contact us to discuss your project requirements.
With any zoom lens, we recommend you tape the zoom ring into position to ensure it doesn’t subtly shift mid-project.
If you would like to use full frame or a fisheye lens, we recommend using our larger ‘Beast’ housing.
The Timelapse X Pro supports shooting in RAW, however the photo gallery cannot display RAW format images. You can configure your unit to capture both formats simultaneously, allowing clients to view JPEG on the photo gallery and RAW photos are saved for later use. The unit can be set to upload JPEG only, RAW and JPEG, or RAW only.
Before shooting in RAW, consider that RAW files are typically 20MB+ per file, and therefore will be much more expensive to upload on a metered data plan, and there will be additional Cloud Services costs once you hit your upload limit. We recommend storing the RAW files locally on an SSD that can be manually copied from or swapped out, whilst uploading the JPEG files to display to clients. Alternatively, the optional add-on ethernet cable can be used to transfer via LAN and avoid high 4G data costs.
The Timelapse X Pro includes remote camera control, which allows you to change some DSLR settings remotely, including exposure compensation, white balance, metering mode and more.
