Hi! im trying to take my own bracketed HDR photos. I have a little loop where i take photos at different exposure settings. but for some reason for the settings to take effect, i need to do a time.sleep(5) between each photo or else the change doesn't seem to take effect. Now caveat, Im that guy using a arducam 64 on a pi4 and understand im apparently pushing the limits of what these things can do, but im just checking if im doing something wrong and there's a faster way to just change the exposure settings: here's the meat of the code im doing

and to clarify i got it working, and luckily moths don't move THAT much, but something like 1 or 2 seconds between exposures would be much more ideal |

I think i fixed it by making the camera STOP each iteration and restart. Otherwise it seems you have to wait a couple frames (and for this slow camera 2 frames is about 5 seconds!) this gives me about 1-2 seconds between pics
figuring out how to save the files later instead of in the loop would be a good next step |

Made a script that at least for me and my slow camera can take a HDR series as fast as possible, and save the files later and save some exif data with them: (Still wonky, but works!) |
