Really nice write up of the process and its limitations. I have to agree totally on what you wrote and thank you for posting it. I had installed Magic Lantern on my 5DMKII because of the many features it adds to the camera and have been using several of them on a daily manner, built in Intervalometer, HDR bracketing without the 3 bracket limit, ISO changes in ramping (not bulb ramping) or 5 bracket HDR ISO change and so on. But quite frankly I never made the jump to Bulb Ramping with it because it never passed the tests I made at home and every time I went out to shoot a night scene I was never comfortable enough to trust the functionality and trust that my sequence would come out perfect. Which is why I never used it really.

I could not put the words all in a straight phrase to explain my doubts but you have done it marvelously.

I am very happy with the Holy Grail method which I also use for none Day to Night transitions but for any scene with drastic changes. It's a wonderful tool and out of ten sequences I would say 9,5 of mine all pass thru LRTimelapse. I hardly do any TL sequence without it.

By the way If you need help for translations in the future, I'll be glad to help you in English, French or Spanish.
