What kind of camera do you have? There are a number of options depending on your camera... If you have a Canon, look into CHDK - it provides an intervalometer.

Also, you can purchase an external trigger that has a timer/intervalometer built in. They make them for several cameras.

CHDK: chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK

Example external trigger: www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=camera+remote+trigger

Then you have everything under Python control and you can make gifs and movies from the photos. BP
