[QUOTE="Panza, post: 431558, member: 28379"] I think you're on the right track. I would try with various ISO's and shutterspeeds until I find a maximum ISO I find comfortable using. You might want to aim to shoot a little bit brighter so you can bring it down levels in LR and adjust as needed. The noise should be reduced when you darken the image in LR but look a bit messy on camera monitor when first shot. : ) My other tip is to know the direction of the Milky Way Galaxy and try to shoot in either direction of it. There are two sides to the Milky Way in the night sky (for me it's North East and South West at this time of year). If the sky is clear enough and the condition is right you can bring out the MWG in LR.
