// Intervaluino MaxTechTV Edition
// this code programs the Arduino as an intervalometer for a Canon EOS camera
// this enables you to create time-lapse movies with your camera.
// It features a LCD Display and two Pushbuttons to setup the interval and the amount of shots
// It uses two 4N35 Optocouplers to focus and release the shutter
//
