[QUOTE="hark, post: 315334, member: 13196"] Sounds like you want a neutral density filter. They come in various strengths. Using one will slow down your shutter speed to create certain effects such as blurred waterfalls, but it won't alter the ISO. For star photos, I don't think you will want an extended length of time because of the star movement. Some Nikons have an additional feature to lower the ISO below the normal range although after checking, it doesn't appear to be an option on your camera. Below is a photo I shot with my D600 at ISO Lo1. Flickr reads it as ISO 50 although that isn't how the camera lists it. Unfortunately at the time I did not own an ND filter. I used a Circular Polarizer to slow down my shutter speed as much as possible. Now I own a 6-stop and a 9-stop neutral density filters. If you ever decide to buy one, make sure to buy it to fit the largest diameter lens you own. Some Nikon lenses take a 77mm size filter while others take a smaller size. You can always use step up rings to fit a larger filter on a smaller lens. That way a filter can be used on all the lenses you own.
