I live in the city and I cant take pictures of the stars. I would need to take pictures with a long exposure of around 4 seconds. Is there a Script or any App that would let me do this?

I think FCam can do that

FCam offers the opportunity to do that but I haven't seen anything that anyone has written to do it. It would be great though, light painting with an N900!

Thanks..I will have to think very hard about this as how last time FCamera drivers some how stopped my keyboard lights and notification lights from working.

fcam is updated to fix the led issue.
Apparently the makers of blessn900 have an in-house version with timed exposure. hope they release it....

i don't think fcam can get exposures more than 1 sec. if it can, can somebody teach me how plz.

the Fcamera example program only goes to 1 second

and it seems Fcam is screwing with the autolocking of my N900 (somtimes it won't engage, seemed to work normally when i uninstalled Fcam, and then stopped workign again after i reinstalled, though somtimes it stay working for a while even with it installed so i don't know for sure if it's really Fcam's fault)

edit:seems it turned out it was Shake-N-Surf's fault

could you paste the code and possible error messages when compiling?

hint: fcam = api
fcamera = the application you can run with your n900

Anyone found something for this yet? FCamera only has 1 second as the longest exposure.

I think there is no solution to this. The sensor is quite noisy so that would pose a problem on long exposures, don't you think?
