Yes. It can be set to never shut down, and you can supply 5 to 5.2 VDC
to the battery contacts within. There is no external power connector.


CORRECTION! (I finally found my manual) There is a jack for external
power, and an AC adapter was sold separately. The camera does not
power down automatically when the external supply is used.

Now the bad news: while the camera responds quickly to the shutter
button, there is a 2 second delay when actuated by the IR remote. I
don't see a way around that, other than to operate the shutter button
mechanically with a small solenoid.
