REQUEST: Auto Exposure for Time-lapse mode please!!
After trying Go Pro, Yi 4K, DJI Osmo amongst some others, I still hope that one day one of hte manufacturers will come to their senses and offer a Auto Exposure mode for the timelapse function. Is this something Insta360 is looking into!? This would mean you be the only one on the market offering this function, and would likely let you corner the time-lapse producer market in no time.
The nearest thing so far is the DJI OSmo Action, which has a Photo series mode, where you can set the max. ISO and the white balance and the shutter speed is adjusted according to light levels. But exposure stops at 8sec, which is not enought for taking a time-lapse into the night. It should be apossible to go to about 60sec (and the camera actually lets you set a exposure longer than 8 sec, but it will not use that when changing the exposure - it is only available when set manually before starting to shoot!)
Come on Insta360....! you can be better than DJI, what are you waiting for!? Get this into the next firmware please and I buy a Insta360 Riwith 1 inch sensor immediately.
Set manually:
- ISO (50, 100 or maybe 200 max)
- White balance
- intervals (at least upto 30sec, but 60, 90 sec options would be better)
- make sure the camera works when using external battery pack
- allow it to be controlled by wifi when battery pack is connected
And adjust the exposure automatically according to available light! its surely not rocket science!
