[QUOTE="MartinCornwall, post: 448683, member: 12701"] If you have a clear night use your widest fastest lens 30 secs, ISO as high as you can go without bringing in to much noise on your d5300, manual focus, tungsten white balance and use a use a cable release locked on to continually fire the shutter. Remember the 100 shot limit and reset the cable release before the limit is released and you can use the files to Starstax a star trail. Those settings do depend on the amount of light pollution in your area but I can usually go 30 secs f2.8 ISO1600 and get a good exposure from my location. [/QUOTE]
