[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 560568, member: 12496"] It's a great story, and a couple of good lessons for us all. I would comment that f/8 might not be the best choice for such pictures. It is of course always a good general idea to stop down a stop or two, but stars are surely the exception, f/8 makes it harder. Stars are the best case of using the lens wide open, and in fact, a f/2.8 lens wide open would be a good choice, and is 3 stops more light (8x more light) than f/8. [/QUOTE]
