I like the Lightburn camera but not having exposure controls caused me all sorts of issues. I got tired of holding cardboard up to block light, etc. so I made a permanent solution.
This is the camera view of my scrap alignment wood before my filter.
Now this is the camera view after installing the filter.
I’ve not noticed them and saw there was an update. I’ll see if the filter is still necessary.

I have the older camera on OS X. I’ll try messing with the controls to see if manual adjustments now work for the older LB camera.
