Re: [LUG] Time: Camera sync.

Today I was using 3 cameras, and getting them all synchronised to the

I've not found a facility in the camera/picture-management software on
Debian to plug a camera in by its USB socket, and click "set this camera
to current Internet time."

One could then successively plug in several and have each set to
whatever accuracy they hold internally, rather than just the same second.

If it doesn't exist already, there is an opportunity for a tiny program
for that.

(Different lenses.  One on each shoulder, not simultaneously, and one on
a tripod with a radio trigger for a spare finger.)


Gadget Geeks (Challenge channel?) episode 1 they had a time slice video thing where they synchronises 24 cameras - might be worth checking that out...
