Holy Grail Wizard

Offline
#1 Jburden14
Hi Gunther,

Can you help me out. In the past when doing a holy grail with Lrtimelapse 4, the HG wizard would let me choose offset so i could get a nice "reflection" of what i had captured for a smooth time lapse output. I notice in LRT5 that option is no longer included. I seem to have quite a strange HG line here (see in the included picture). With the HG wizard set like this, my initial images are coming out way under exposed and my Night sequence far too bright. [Image: https://ibb.co/mPSmFT] If i use rotate to get more of a mirrored HG line, my night images are going to get progressively darker as shown in the second image [Image: https://ibb.co/cmhp28]

What is the reason im getting such a broad HG wizard output? 

Cheers
Jack

You need to use rotate and stretch to get the line close to the horizontal middle. The HG Wizard in LRT5 is more accurate, it works a bit different then in LRT4, in some cases like your's you need to do quite some rotating and possibly stretching of the curve. Try it out until you have the curve as close as possible to the horizontal middle.
Btw: "Offset" would not have helped...

Thanks always appreciate your fast response. I managed to get it how i wanted it, i guess i just wasn't used to the newer layout. It confused me a little bit to see the files very under exposed in Lightroom after reading metadata, but after increasing exposure in lightroom it turned out good. Thanks again
