[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 641567, member: 12496"] On the tripod, turn VR off. The pictures are not the same, but here is my picture of VR on a long exposure at night. [IMG]https://scantips.com/lights/images/800_2084.jpg[/IMG] This was a D800 with 70-200mm lens, at 200 mm. This was unfortunately 100% repeatable every time, no matter where the camera was aimed. So turn VR Off on the tripod at night. FWIW, I just did a calculator the computes the maximum time for such a Milky Way picture on a fixed mount (like the 500 Rule. but much more). It computes the blur trail in terms of multiples of CoC to better judge the effect, and it computes the number of pixels of blur too.
