[QUOTE="Lradke, post: 499250, member: 11379"] A specific predawn tutorial? I am not aware of one. However full manual and trial and error are probably what will happen. That being said, I went out yesterday to do a shot, it was too cloudy for mercury on the horizon, but I got the moon, Jupiter, Mars, and Venus. And as a guideline for you to start with, here are my settings: 8seconds, 35mm, f11, ISO 3200, manual focus to infinity (live view focusing on a star). This is the photo and I took it around 7am yesterday. Jupiter and mars are there, you just can't see them in this photo of my camera screen. Oh and I shot in Raw format. I went with the high ISO so the sensor would pick up more, quicker. I stopped the aperture down so little light would get in...thus letting the high ISO and shutter speed to work together...if that makes sense. I hope this helps!
