Hi guys, i've been encountering an issue with previous TL and now ML nightly releases for the 6D.

Auto-ETTR (set to 'always on') appears to work just fine when used on a single shot basis, with the exposure adjusting as you would expect.

When i combine it with the intervalometer however, i notice inconsistent results.

For example, in my experiment with a sunset tonight - at f8, i get nice metering from shutter speeds of 1/4 (iso 100) to 0"6 (iso 100).  From that point on however, the exposure does not correct for the decreasing light and the photo gets darker and darker. 

Intervalometer was set to take a photo every 35 seconds.  Slowest shutter for Auto-ETTR was 32 seconds.  Camera is in manual mode.

Sometimes, i quit the intervalometer while leaving auto-ETTR on, ML will correct it itself, but switching the intervalometer back on will again lead to inconsistent results.

Im currently running magiclantern-Nightly.2014Mar23.6D113 although i have experienced similar issues with earlier nightlies.

Has anyone encountered this kind of thing?  I want to be able to trust ML to do its thing.
