[QUOTE="dmaavrigdo, post: 1002340, member: 323068"] Picked up a couple of used Ixus 105 (the second was an unexpected win with a low bid) on an auction site for £40. 12 mega pixel and bigger lens so better and cheaper than a Pi + Pi cam. Loaded CHDK ([URL='http://chdk.wikia.com/']CHDK Wiki[/URL]) to enable interval timer and USB control and made a remote control that plugs into the camera's USB from an ESP8266 that I can control, over my network, from a browser or from the simple app I made for my phone. To catch bird shots some on the CHDK site advocate just leaving the camera set to take a picture every second rather than trying to trigger it manually or by motion detection. As soon as it warms up a bit I'll put it out by the feeder and see what works best.. [/QUOTE]
