Hello, I recently tried making my first timelapse using the Auto Holy Grail feature in DslrDashboard. I used a Canon 6D paired to an iPhone 6, with a Polaroid intervalometer set to take a picture every 7 seconds. I set slowest shutter speed to 2" to allow plenty of time for previews to load. Everything went fine until as it got dark, shutter speed increased to 1". At this point, images continued to be captured, but without compensation for light changes by the application. I thought that my SD card was not fast enough, so I got a 65 GB card and retested, but found the same problem. Finally, tonight I tried again using the DslrDashboard internal intervalometer and did not have any issues. It seems that when I use the Polaroid intervalometer, as the exposure time increases, this is not accounted for by the intervalometer, which continues telling the camera to take a photo every 7 seconds, regardless of whether the camera is still processing a capture. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so, are there any suggestions of how to fix this without relying only on the internal intervalometer? Thanks very much
