Hi Guther,
I shot a 1000 frame HG dawn sequence, on a Sony camera with a manual lens (which I've done many times before), and I can't get the Holy Grail Wizard to work.
And I didn't get the automatic "you don't have aperture info in EXIF" dialog (so I then set the aperture to f/8 in LRT using Lens Tagging).
I can see definite exposure changes in the LRT columns, and can see exposure jumps in the preview.
The only thing different from my normal way of shooting, is that I set the camera in Aperture priority (first test, usually all manual and control shutter and ISO by hand). I've read several threads in the FAQ section of this forum discussing similar problems. I'm willing to deal with the issue using deflicker, but it makes much more sense to me to have precise exposure control using the Holy Grail Wizard, and leave deflicker to minor flickering issues.
How does LRT know a camera was in Aperture Priority and then not activate the HGW? I figured EXIF changes were EXIF changes. And, if I laboriously put in the two and three star tags by hand (over 1000 frames, tedious, I'll really miss that Wizard!), will LRT use them properly?
Cheers!
Chas
