[QUOTE="J-see, post: 389175, member: 31330"] Another night with a clear sky but too much moon at the one side and plenty pollution at the other. You not only need to know where to point the lens, that area needs to be clear too. Not much choice so I did some more dot-shots with the 200mm. Each shot I hopefully learn some more. Live-view rocks for focusing these shots. Now I need to fine-tune the ISO/shutter and maybe pick another lens. I get enough data in the 2 seconds I can shoot the 200 but there isn't much in its FOV. [ATTACH=CONFIG]128115._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]128116._xfImport[/ATTACH] I wonder what that bright spot is. I can tell you what the moon is and a couple of star signs but all the rest I distinguish as shiny star and not so shiny star. I got the Tam out to see if I could get more. [ATTACH=CONFIG]128120._xfImport[/ATTACH] Not really but even at 600mm I can get the stars nice. [/QUOTE]
