intervalometer for a Canon Rebel XTi ?? new
      #2659236 - 09/23/08 06:07 PM

Hi Folks,

I am looking for an intervalometer for my digital Rebel XTi. Canon makes one for other models, but the XTi has a conector that takes a jack that looks akin to a mini headphone jack.

Do any of you know of a scource for such an item?

Thanks for the help in advance!

Dan

I use the TC80-N3 timer with an adapter from this guy:

It works great. Others have found less expensive timers on ebay...or just use PC control.

There are also plans out there to convert the N3 connection to something the XTi can use:
