Dragon Stop Motion
$275, Mac OS X, Windows
Professional software that beside its main use for stop motion animation allows time lapse and camera control. Only software so far that supports Canon and Nikon cameras.

If your camera allows IR remote control a Zephir device can be teached to do anything the camera remote does and the Zephir application can be controlled via Applescript. For instance time lapse shooting where a camera takes a photo every minute for one hour requires just six lines in the AppleScript editor.
