Can the Fujifilm HS10 shoot automatically at 1-minute intervals?

I want to leave a Fujifilm HS10 aimed at a scene and have it take one photo every minute, like a simple time-lapse setup. Does the HS10 have a built-in interval timer for this? If not, can it be triggered from a laptop over USB, or would I need some kind of external remote or intervalometer?

The Fujifilm HS10 doesn't have any built-in mechanism for doing this.
There is a chap on the myFinePix forums who has built a bracket to allow a remote shutter trigger. This could (in theory) be hooked up to a mechanical intervalometer.
I could not find information about a way of remotely controlling the camera from a computer using the USB socket.

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
The HS10 does not appear to have a built-in interval shooting feature.
From the community answers, there’s also no confirmed support for controlling this model over USB from a computer. One answer notes that many cameras can be controlled over PTP using tools like gPhoto, but that is not confirmation that the HS10 specifically supports remote capture that way.
So, the practical answer is:
- Built-in interval timer: likely no
- USB remote shooting from a laptop: unconfirmed for the HS10
- External triggering: potentially possible if you add a custom remote shutter solution, which could then be driven by a mechanical intervalometer
If your goal is one shot per minute, the most reliable path would likely be an external shutter-trigger setup rather than relying on USB control, unless you can verify HS10 compatibility with remote-capture software first.
