What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I have a manual aperture len, samyang 14 T3.1. Camera cannot detected the 
aperture value. I need to set it on len when shooting. On camera, the aperture 
value is always 00.
2. So if capturing with dslrdashboard, the apture value cannot be shown.
3. If I want to launch LRTimelapse, it will warning me to switch camera 
exposure mode to M mode even if I already set the camera to M mode.
4. I tried OTG and openwrt, the results are the same.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1. dslrdashboard can detect the correct exposure mode without aperture value.
2. If dslrdashboard cannot detect the correct exposure mode without aperture 
value, it should allow me to launch LRTimelapse without aperture controller. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using a Canon 550D camera. 
My android device is Samsung i939 with 4.0.4 android system.  
I am using dslrdashboard 0.30.29

Please provide any additional information below.
As you know, If using auto aperture len, the aperture value is not stable. For 
example, if you set 8.0 to shoot, the aperture value is not 8.0 in every shoot, 
some of them is not 8.0. So the exposure is not correct. So using a manual 
aperture lan is good choose. 
And some of the photographyer will set aperture to 8.0 and then press depth of 
field Preview button and turn off the len a little to make it loose in the same 
time. Then the aperture of the auto len will be locked in 8.0 stable. But on 
camera it will always show 00 for aperture value. Then they will meet the same 
issue.

Do you see the camera mode icon in the top row? When you change the camera mode 
is it displayed in top row?

Ok, I see in the #91, there will be a new version where you will be able to 
enter LRTimelapse. The lens has nothing to do with it, but that the application 
can't find the capture mode property.

It seems not a manual len issue. I tried a auto len, meet the same warning. 
This does not occur with 0.30.28. Only occurs on 0.30.29.

So, it seems that the problem is the #91.

auto lens. Thanks.
