Hi,
I bought LRTimelapse Pro Timer 3.0 to use it for Astrophotography (star trail and Milky Way). When setting up the camera (Nikon Z7 II) in Timelapse (M) as per the manual it skips a lot of shots even if I increase the release time.
LRTimelapse settings:
Timelapse (M)
Interval 15 secs
100 shots
Release time 500ms (to give the camera enough time to clear the buffer)
Camera Settings:
Mode: M
Shutter speed: 15 sec
The only way it worked is by changing the settings as following:
LRTimelapse settings:
Timelapse (M)
Interval 15 secs
100 shots
Release time 500ms
Camera Settings:
Mode: M
Shutter speed: bulb
Please advise the recommended settings for Astrophotography with shutter speed between 15~20 secs
Thanks
