Re: 99 Frame EPL6 Time Lapse Function - Surely Olympus are having a laugh!

There was a work-around, if I recall correctly, for the E-PM1, which had no time-lapse function built in. I believe it would also work for the E-PL6, though you don't need it as you have an intervalometer.

The work-around was to use a locking remote shutter release, the anti-shake setting, and drive mode. The time interval between shots was set by the anti-shake setting. Shoot as many frames as you like, until the card is full. Intervals available are 30s, 15s, 8s, 4s, 2s, 1s, 1/2s, 1/4s, and 1/8s; so perhaps not as flexible as an intervalometer, but it was fun to play with.
