Hi,
at the first congratulations for your job Gunther, I like LR and LRtimelapse is the perfect tool to make perfect TL. It is a drug! ;-)
I'm starting to make my first TL, so I'm experiencing different possibilities. But I have a doubt: I want to make a long sunset TL from 1 hour before sunset to 2 hours after. I have seen your tutorial about it, but it is very laborious to change the speed time to time (each 1EV) to adjust to light conditions and after that use LR to match the photos when you have increased the exposition. But there is a simple method to do it: I make all photos using the Av mode, matrix mettering and -2EV correction, the camera change the time (from 1/60 to 30s for example) to try to match all expositions and you obtain a very flickered sequence (the minimum exposition steps of my camera is 1/3EV), and with a more or less flat lighting. But after that you apply the magic deflicker function, and use a manual curve to under expose gradually the photos.
You think I can obtain good results with this process? The issue is I have to underexpose the last photo around 6 diaphragm perhaps, and it can be critic even using RAW format.
Sorry for my terrible English and regards from Spain!
