- During off-hours (between 19:00 and 8:00) the prices are reduced by 50 %. Long time-lapse imaging should always be scheduled during these hours.
- 24 hours cancellation notice is required to avoid charges. We have this to avoid unnecessary over-booking of the instruments.
- For external users, the fees are higher in order to cover the "overhead" cost for rent, administration and VAT. The price may also vary depending on the time and assistance requested.
