Hi all
I am new to LRT and still getting used to it so it is probably a question that has been asked before. I like to make day to night timelapses which I have got to work pretty well. The only thing I am struggling with is the speed of the night section of the sequence.
During the day time, I can have my camera happily fire off a shot every 5 seconds where as night, due to the low light, the shutter speed increases to perhaps 30 seconds (with a reasonable iso of perhaps 800). This means that I can only fit 120 shots in an hour in the night and perhaps 1000s of shots per hour in the day time. I realise I could limit my intervalometer to take photos at the lowest common denominator (no more than one every 30 seconds) but this seems like a shame. Is there any function of LRT that compensates for the reduced number of shots at night. Every clever thing I can think of seems like a poor compromise when I am sure Gunther would have come up with a clever solution.
Anyone know how I could solve this?
