Howdy folks
Just about to do a low budget 5 day/night timelapse.  Its lwo budget so I'm trying to minimise how much time I spend on it.  As it is I'm planning on losing the day/night transitions and turning up twice a day to set the daytime exposure. Not ideal but hey ho.

I've read a little about ETTR, but not enough to know whether the post workflow is going to kill any time savings I may have.  I've had a go at bulb ramping before but it was an early build and I couldn't get my head around it.  Is it something I can get comformatable with in a few hours of testing, or should I just stick to what I know - because I slightly compromised timelapse of a one-off event is better than nothing!

I'm using a 60d
