Re: 555 timer circuits for digital camera trigger



Or would this project be easier with some sort of PIC?

Yes.

OTOH many digital cameras have an USB interface, and there exists a protocol
(PTP mode) that these days many cameras support, to take a picture.
So a small Linux computer, running perhaps gphoto2 software, with some
sensor interface with USB PIC perhaps, more complicated.....
All depends.


I was thinking 555 or PIC because of size requirements (needs to be
portable and run off a 6-12v battery). I had not considered USB.
Hummm...

Are there any PICs that don't require a steep learning curve for
programming? Something like a PIC for dummies?
