We have a Nor'easter (and a real one, not the ones our local news loves to hype up) moving in Thursday and I would like to get a good time lapse (my iPad will do it but I'll need it for entertainment). I'm thinking my D5500 will be good for it but last time I did it I got very few pictures (and no AC charger that plugs into the camera) - maybe 100. I am going to try to get as much out of it as possible - even get the battery to a full charge before I start. As of now, they're expecting it to start around 11am or noon on Thursday and go though the night into Friday morning, so I may need 24 hours of shooting (wow). They're now predicting 14-18 inches of snow (that estimate keeps going up - and oddly it's almost 60 out now). I think last time I had it take a picture every 15 seconds - I think my iPad does every 30 so I may try that. Maybe even a lower resolution to help with battery life? I'll have the setup between a curtain and the window so internal lights shouldn't be an issue. My memory card shouldn't be an issue, though.
