4 cameras, synchronize exposure settings?

Post by lin56hk »

Goal: to control 4 cameras in sync via Lrtimelapse within Qdslrdashboard, 4 way synchronized shutter is done externally (finished properly setup)

I can do synchronized shutter but i can't seem to be able to change all 4 camera's shutter speed/iso/aperture at the same time. is there a way?

After connecting the 4 cameras:
- set one to master (in bottom left corner)
- set the other 3 to slave
- switch back to master camera and setup the LRTimelapse screen
- you can long press the 'master/slave' button to synchronize the current shutter/ISO/aperture values to slave cameras
i suggest using an external timer that will trigger all 4 cameras
you can use the qDD internal timer (for the master camera) then in qDslrDashboard settings enable the 'Synchronized capture' option

Note that properties synchronization currently only works with Nikon DSLR.

You need the latest V3.5.9 for this to work.

""To use this option you first need to define the ‘master/slave’ in the bottom right part""
