I saw Gunther made a point that you should avoid shooting with clouds in this case.
Or just shoot 15 seconds at higher ISO.
Problem with both suggestions, clouds are often what makes a timelapse interesting, and shooting at 15 seconds causes playback to be half the speed that it should be for enjoyable playback at 30 fps. I suppose you could use a longer focal length to get the speed up....but then you crop the sky.
Looking at the MX2, it has the ability to change interval live on the fly.
I am going to try this out tonight. Basically, as the shutter speed in the Holy Grail mode increases, I'll change the setting on the MX2. I will ensure manually that there is a correct corresponding change on the MX2.
Starting in day at 3 seconds intervals, using holy grail mode targeting eventually 30 seconds at iso 3200... when the shutter speed goes to 1 second, I will change the interval on MX2 to 4, when it hits 2 I change MX2 to 5 and so on...now this may blow up in my face, but there has to be a way to do this.
