Capture and display

$ bayer_capture_sequence.sh 

    usage: bayer_capture_histograms.sh min-exp-time-s max-exp-time-s
    
           Create and display histograms by doubling the exposure times
           between min and max exposure time.
           Example: bayer_capture_histograms.sh 30 240 will create histograms for exposures of 30, 60, 120 and 240 seconds.


$ bayer_capture_sequence.sh 

    usage: bayer_capture_sequence.sh object image-count exp-time-s
    
           Capture and image sequence and store them as raw images.
    
           Example: bayer_capture_sequence.sh zetori 20 1800 will capture 20 halve hour exposures zetori_1800_00.cr2, zetori_1800_01.cr2, ...
