Hi,

I'm trying to make my Sony A7 IV (recent firmware) work with Astroberry (2.0.5) using Sony DSL driver. I figured out that it's required to use uncompressed RAWs and Delay of about 10sec in order to avoid crashes.
However, I cannot fix another issue. Namely, the camera does not follow the exposure set in Ekos (for instance 0.8sec instead of 1sec). I experience a crash in case of intended "long" exposures (more than couple of seconds). I didn't manage to force the camera to take i.e. 5 seconds long exposure, despite manually setting BULB in the camera.
I noticed that same "numerology" mismatch applies to aperture setting (when the camera has a regular photo lens attached for purely test purposes).

Do you have a clue what may I be doing wrong? Is there perhaps sort of a bug in the driver?

Regards,
Pawel
