Combining HDR & Time Lapse

Hello,
I am running a project to capture sunsets and sun rises using HDR and the time lapse technique. Does your program allow to capture a bracketing burst and program it to be launched at a given period of time?
Thanks,

Dani

You can combine exposure bracketing and time lapse shooting. First defene exposure bracketing parameters, then go to time lapse and allow exposure bracketing for each shot.

Hello,
I'm doing some tests but I feel it takes a long time for the bracketing burst. Is there any way to speed it up? It's strange, as when I do burts bracketing alone (Tools > Burst Bracketing) it works fast, but it doesn't when I combine it with the Time Lapse. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,

Dani

Please explain the problem in greater detail. What exactly is slow? The time between what events is too long?

I am trying to take a bracketing burst every 1 minute, so I can create a timelapse based on HDR images. The problem is that when I run the exposure bracketing it takes a long time to take all the pictures. However, when I go to Tools>Burst bracketing it can take the pictures at the usual speed. So, how can I make the exposure bracketing to take the pictures faster?
Thanks

It is normal, exposure bracketing is totally different from burst focus bracketing. If you want to compare it to some other sequence shooting, compare it to the regular (non-burst) focus bracketing. It'll be about the same speed, and it can't be made faster.
