Does anyone know how to use the HD100 to shoot timelapse images that can be recorded, or at least edited, on a PC? The Mac users have iStopMotion from Boinx. Anything like that for PC? I'm searching for software.

Here's one - not sure if it controls HDV:

The site says it works for HD, at $595, but does not say which cameras it can "recognize." That compares with $285 for the SD version. Since they don't mention HDV as a separate category, I assume its in there with HD. It seems a little steep for a guy who just wants to do some occasional time lapse, but if its the only show in town....

Thanks for the reply and the link.

I think if you google around for a while you might find cheaper alternatives. Of course digital still cameras are a really good way to go for time lapse work. High quality, low cost, batteries last a long time. That's worth testing.
