This is a good procedure for getting an exposure that is correct for the image, no matter how bright or dim. Since it should give correct exposure of the picture for all cases (by adjusting shutter duration), you should be able to do a quick experiment by setting the Indextron for a dim picture and see if this causes the iPad to expand the shutter time.
