DocBobalot Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 HI all. Long time photographer and admirer of the night skies, so I thought it'd be a good idea to put them together (can't believe it's taken me this long to work that one out). I tried a few pics just with my standard kit, liked what I saw, so have now picked up a star adventurer to see what happens. Of course, since I bought the star adventurer, it's been cloudy every night...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocBobalot Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 Thank you for the welcomes I've just had a quick hour or so playing with the star adventurer before the clouds came in. Set everything up as I have read, did all of the tweaks, took some test shots and wondered why I was still getting quite serious trails (using a 200mm lens, at 2 minutes, just to see what happens). Then I realised that I had done everything except turn it on. I have a long road ahead of me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain in the Neck Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Hello Doc, welcome to the lounge. There is indeed a massive amount of information available on the SGL, and they seem to be a very friendly (and patient) bunch of people. I am sure to make hundreds of silly mistakes in my new-found hobby, just not sure I’ll admit to all of them! Charles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
