Flicker does not go away - melhi - 2022-03-08

Hi,
I recently bought your software. Everything is okay, but I can't remove heavy flickering in my time-lapse. Sequences was take in studio under strobe light (every 10 minutes). I suspect two things: leaking light from small window during the day, or non consistent strobe light. I hope, that I can remove this with deflickering method in LRT5, but spikes i just too high...? What do you recommend or just hint me, what I am doing wrong with post-proces? I develop photos in LR (jpeg) with minor corrections, then import in LTR5.

Here is my example what I am talking about:

Artifiicial light is always somewhat difficulat - strobes are known for always creating heavy flicker. But I would think with a good reference area (n the middle, over the mussrooms) and a couple of visual deflcker passes you should be able to correct this.

BUT: I would never shoot such sequences in JPG. Camera will already add developments here that might lead to contrast flicker that you cannot remove. And you won't be able to use Visual Deflicker with JPGs.

Also you should do the workflow as I recommend it - starting in LRTimelapse.
You'll find all the information in my tutorials: https://lrtimelapse.com/tutorial/

Thanks a lot, I will try to shoot again with RAW files and then try with visual.

Artificial light is not as hard to maintain. If you have, say, five 60 watt incandescent bulbs, you should have somewhere in the region of 5500 lumens of light at 17-18 lumens per watt of power consumption
