[QUOTE="Wahugg, post: 133597, member: 10685"] It's absolutely possible to see star trails within 30 seconds. Here is the general rule of thumb: For FX sensors: 600/focal length = expose time when star trails begin to get noticeable ex: 600/30mm= 20 seconds For DX sensors: 400/focal length = expose time when star trails begin to get noticeable ex: 400/30mm= 13.3 seconds Hope this helps -Wahugg [/QUOTE]
