Good evening everyone!
I'm wanting to build a time-lapse camera to photograph construction going on across the highway of my work. Ideally, I want a self-contained, weather-proof enclosure that would be mounted to the roof of the building. I want to run the time-lapse camera on solar-power and battery.

I've never built a time-lapse camera and searching online has given me a wide-variety of ways to build this. Has anyone built one? Would it be best to use an actual camera, like a Canon EOS Rebel T1i, or a LinkSprite TTL type camera?
