ISO settings for a long timelaps - Albene - 2019-03-28

Hi,

I was wondering if its a good idea to set ISO on Auto when i'm doing a landscape timelaps over 5 hours in, probably, changeing light conditions (i dont have dslr dashboard)
What you guys think?

Kind regards, Alex

I woudn't recommend to use Auto-ISO or A-Mode when shooting timelapse.
See: http://forum.lrtimelapse.com/Thread-why-not-shoot-day-to-night-transitions-in-aperture-priority-mode
Normally, during the day the dynamic range of your sensor should easily be able to handle any changes (just make sure to expose to the brightest expected situation).
For the transitions rather use the holy grail method, explained here:
