I think that sounds like the way forward as ive been trying to work out how to calculate 9 stops difference in shutter speed and my non mathematical brain wont cooperate
I think manual mode indeed and adjusting the shutter speed is what i will do. I actually already tried getting an accurate reading whilst covering up the eyepiece when in live view but it didn't help. Cheers again and i think you've clarified what is the way im going to go about this. Very best regards!
