I am trying to figure out how to build a super simple build. I have extremely little electronics experience so I could use some advice.
I have a camera trigger with a two stage button and I want to modify it to trigger ever n seconds. I only need to trigger the second stage and bypassing the trigger is just a matter of connecting two contacts.
I would simply like to replace a switch with a variable timer. I want to take pictures as quickly as possible, so I want to vary the time in order to dial in the optimal timing. So I am looking for this result:
Press a button
wait n sec
connect contact a with contact b
wait n sec
connect contact a with contact b
...
Press a button
Stop connecting
I have been searching online but can't seem to find the right thing. I think I should be using some 555 timer build?
I apologize if this sort of question has already been covered.
