Does anyone know of any way to take multiple shots with the 20D in timer mode (without having to touch camera between shots)

You would probably have to use this remote switch.

I don't think Canon camera bodies have this ability built in. Hope this helps.

You would need to have the Canon TC-80N3 Timer Remote to accomplish that.

The very same unit mentioned in the previous post.

FWIW, Out of curiosity, I tried it with the RS-80N3 (it's just a remote shutter switch)..

I set the camera in timer mode, pressed the button and locked it.. It took the first picture with the timer, but that was it.. It didn't take any more.. You definitely need the enhanced remote with the timer functions built in.

The TC-80N3 works very well for this. I have left the camera on a tripod all day, snapping shots every 15 minutes, using mine. It is great for motion studies, construction, demolition, etc.

If 3 shots are enough, set AEB, or color balance bracketing, to a small value and drive to continuous.

Or if you have a laptop it is also do'able. Canon Professional software allows you to set up a timer set up via USB.
