Hello,
I was testing out QDSLR Dashboard today, using the intervalometer within the application.
Once the time-lapse was stitched together I noticed that it seems a few frames are missing (or more likely the camera has not fired). It looks as though it misses a shot and then attempts to make up for it by shooting another quickly after it manages to fire the camera.
A link to the time-lapse is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdOhG0lC...e=youtu.be
You can notice at ~7 seconds, ~16 seconds and a lot at ~22 seconds.
I am running QDSLR from a Samsung Galaxy S3 to a 5Dmkii. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps the phones processor cannot keep up? As it seems to get worse as it gets darker (and the shutter gets longer) leaving less 'dark time'. I was using a 7 second interval with a max 4 second shutter.
Any ideas on a solution? Or is a faster device needed to control the camera?
*There is also a dark circle in the top right that becomes more apparent as the scene gets darker, I am assuming it is a mark somewhere but I can't find anything on the sensor.
