LRTimelapse 7.5.2 and 7.5.1

Here is what’s new in LRTimelapse 7.5.2 and 7.5.1.

Please install the new version via the auto updater or by direct download.

7.5.2 (1048)

Adobe removed the option to directly initialize the sequence with a custom Camera Profile. Therefore I removed this option from the settings.

Also see my video about this.

Exposure Techniques for Impossible High-Contrast Shots – LRTimelapse Talks with Fernando Braga

For this 3rd episode of LRTimelapse Talks, I sat down with photographer and developer Fernando Braga to dismantle common myths about ISO and noise. Fernando explains how he captures "impossible" high-contrast shots of the moon behind the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro using ISO Invariance and modern ETTR (Expose To The Right) techniques. He explains that the idea of "ISO vs. Noise" that many people have is often wrong: most noise comes from the scene rather than from the camera. Links Fernando…
