Going from 4.0.7944 to 4.0.7976 the exposure doesn't change immediately when a change is made to the exposure length. In the past when making a change the exposure would immediately terminate and start the new changed exposure. Now what is happening is the new exposure length starts when the current exposure is ended.

Hi Don,

if you are in still mode then that was deliberate - once you have started an exposure in still mode, making changes to the exposure length shouldn't change things.

If you are in live mode then I goofed and let the changes I was aiming for still mode also happen in live mode for long exposures :(

cheers,

Robin

Hi, Robin,
based on what I saw last night, sorry, but you goofed!
Reading your explanation at least makes sense f what I observed when changing exposure using live-stack...

Cheers,
Carl
