Scripting Corner / Silent Pics Timelapse - (FRSP Day to night timelapse script)
« on: April 05, 2023, 03:28:16 AM »
Auto ETTR does not change aperture, but this script will take your ISO and change the aperture accordingly (-1 EV for +1 EV) same with shutter speed, FRSP has a shutter speed limit, so, why not compensate with aperture?
Original Timelapse script:
https://gist.github.com/pigeonhill/c16b49d1f5da899b1d03a98c737e371f
Save as .lua:
Menu under Shoot>Timelapser
maybe you wanna tweak some lines? Here's some info:

--[[
LE simulation via Bracketing, using shutterless, Full Res Silent Picture
Creates brackets for post processing a simulated LE exposure
User must set FRSP mode, ie DNG or MLV and also wheather to use Dual-ISO
Exposure Sim should be on
Should be in LV
Version 0.8: Requires the Lua Fix
