StarRaver Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I have been out with my 50mm lens and taken this shot on a relatively cloudy night and was quite impressed with the result, you can still see a faint hint of cloud but it doesnt ruin the picture to much i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark at Beaufort Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Just shows how great these lenses can be. What camera was it? Can you state the ISO setting, time period and the F stop used?By the way you should be pleased with the result. Well done.Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarRaver Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 multiple shots stacked with dss, 20 second exposures with 1.8f stop used, annoyed that the colours of the original havent uploaded with this picture i am using the canon 60d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Nice shot of Altair, Scutum and Sagittarius. Loads of DSOs buried in that, too.And it gives me a good idea of what sort of sky coverage the 50mm f/1.8 gives, which is very helpful. Thank you.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesF Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Certainly is I'd estimate the field of view in this shot to be about forty-five degrees across the diagonal, which I think I might be happy with.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
