[QUOTE="canuck257, post: 664018, member: 38099"] I recently returned from a trip to the Canadian Arctic photographing the Aurora. Conditions were ideal except for a very bright full moon which affected my exposure settings. I used my D810 on a tripod with a Nikkor 24-85 lens and a wireless remote. ISO was 100, aperture was wide open and shutter speeds varied around 10-15 seconds. I took a series of shots adjusting shutter speed as necessary to get an acceptable exposure. Remember, if you use too long a shutter speed you will get star trails. I focused the lens to infinity on a distant object in daylight then taped the focus ring so that it would not move and set the camera focus to manual. This is one of the shots taken.
