Hi Paul I just purchased my first camera a Canon Rebel T7 and I enjoy learning from you, your training skills are excellent!! Glad I found your channel. Thank you!!
I second this! Have the same camera and am struggling a bit to find myself with it! Absolutely love astronomy- and have had a few good years playing around but I’m left wanting more! This guys great
I started watching your photography tips and I must say that I have enjoyed everyone I have watched. When comparing your videos to others I have watched, you are easy to understand, you don't keep rambling on, your straight to the point on the subject matter. I am an older man in the USA and just started Photography with a Nikon 5300. Thank you for doing what you do...I am learning every time i watch. Don't stop!!
Excellent. I’m an amateur at best using a Sony Zve 10 with a 13 mm prime lens with an F1.4 setting. Haven’t seen a video that explains the basics as simply as you. Thanks brother
The books I've read talk about the rule of 500, where 500 divided by focal length = longest exposure before the stars start to trail. Since I have a Canon T5i, I have to account for the crop factor. Thus, my shortest focal length lens is a 16mm F2, but the formula is now 500 / (16 * 1.6) = 500 / 25.6 = 18 or 19 seconds maximum exposure. Hopefully, I'll be able to try it out this fall and see how it works.
Watched your “How to Photograph the Moon” video many moons ago (sorry about the pun) and it improved my Moon shots instantly. Thanks for your tip on using live view to manually focus, will take that on board next time I do any night photography. My old camera didn’t have it and as you say focusing on stars is difficult. Another thing worth mentioning is to use a 2 sec delay or remote shutter release so the camera has a chance to settle, any movement whatsoever results in blurry stars. Keep up the great teaching Paul, I have found your channel invaluable over the last 3 years or so 👌👍
Thanks Paul! always good instructions and easy to understand for novice photographers like me. You encouraging personality helps all us struggling photographers to 'keep on trying' and practicing our art.
Hi Paul, I didn't mind the boats leaning it's something different. The Panorama shot was beautiful as was all the photos. Loved the Cleveland Lighthouse photo. Thanks for your tips and advice, especially letting us know about the Light pollution website it will come in handy. Must admit that i haven't tried Astrophotography it looks really cool i might give it a go. Great video, thank you. 😃👍
Just a technical point, when you format a card the images aren't deleted. What is removed is the File Allocation Table or FAT. The images are fine till you overwrite them. These recovery programs rewrite the FAT.
Paul, another informative video! I always want to grab my Canon 90D (which love) and run out and take pics after I see one of your vids! Thanks again, Marc
great images Paul , love the marina image and cloud movement over the beach , just got back from two weeks in QLD , visiting family in Rocky , then up to Cairns , Port Doug and Cape Trib , wonderful part of Austraila , that Daintree is quite something , and State of O , thats serious stuff , go the Maroons
My profile pic was taken in April down here in central Victoria near Goornong, 24x10sec, f/2, iso 3200 sky images stacked in sequator and 12x10sec, f/6.3, iso 400 light painted foreground images and 2 x 30sec while lighting the trees and then all combined using layers in Gimp. Camera used was a Canon eos 200d with a Tokina 14-20mm f/2 lens at 14mm, all editing done in Canon DPP4
The lean isn’t from wide angle lenses. It’s from tilting the lens up. Can be fixed using a shift lens or shift adapter like I’m using with 645 lenses on my Z8
Thank you for yet another informative video, and the stitched image was great! My question is which lens feature trumps - lens angle or aperture? I have a 50mm f1.4 and a 16-80 f2.8 to choose from. I would appreciate your input. Thanks, and Cheers!
Great question, I would put angle of view over aperture as it affects composition which is so important and can be often overlooked. The 26-80mm lens would be great for Astro. Thanks for watching and supporting my channel.
Another great video Paul. As an aside Paul, how do you get the screen with the three dials on it, showing adjustments as you make them? Shutter, aperture and ISO. I have a D7200, D7500, and a D500, and I have no idea how to get that handy 'display.' Cheers mate.
Hi David, the animated screen is only available on some cameras (mostly entry level). It may be an option on the D7200 and D7500 - go to Menu > SETUP MENU > Info Display Format and select the graphic display.
Hello sir, another awesome tutorial... I tried it as you taught, but i end up in star and trails, in my photos stars and moon is moving and give 2 or 3 images of it gives it blurry, how to rectify this issue sir...
Wazzup Sir Paul i recieve recently my first gift from my father it is Canon EOS Kiss Digital and i think it's too old too use but as a newbie in photography is it good to use ? Any tips for me ? Thankyou Sir Paul. Have a good day.
Good video Paul, Enjoyed it. Worth mentioning that Planetary and Deep Space Astrophotography are different disciplines with in the "Genre" each with very different requirements and techniques. P.S. any chance of you getting either a Dwarflab Dwarf2 or ZWO SeeStar for review,
Glad you enjoyed the video. I had two Google the Dwarflab Dwarf2 and ZWO SeeStar to find out what they were, they look really cool but I don't think they are of me I'm afraid.
@@photogenius :) Going to say it Paul, at the price point, I am fascinated by these smartscopes, well we all need a diversion or a gadget to play with from time to time lol, .. 😎 ZWO who are developing the SeeStar are well known for their range of dedicated Astrophotography cameras, many serious Astrophotographers use ZWO kit. Compare the Dwarf2 at about $500 (US) with the Stellina Roboscope at about $3000 (US) you will see the fascination.🙂🙂. British RUclipsr Astrobiscuit did a shootout between the roboscope and a frankenstein imaging rig built to a similar specification. The results of his little battle are quite scary. Cheers Dave B 😎
i just started astrophotographer and there is a 500 rule i learned and i use a full frame sony camera and without a star tracker, the shutter speed is only 2 seconds, how do you recommend 20 seconds??
Why does everyone think high iso causes noise it's becouse the camera didn't get enough light when you took the picture the iso just shows you that expose correctly and you won't have a problem
I noticed that you had Image Stabilization on, for the lens you showed. This should be turned off for Astro. it is not needed when on a tripod or tracker.
You are absolutely correct, the clip of me selecting manual focus was taken from another video (to save time) and if I'm honest I missed that the IS was turned on... Well spotted!
ISO reflects, basically, how “sensitive” the camera will be to light. On a bright day, use a low ISO number like 100 or 125; use ISO 400 on a cloudy day. Indoors, you may need 800, 1600 or higher. This is a basic photography element, as are f-stop and aperture. Find a very basic photography tutorial to become thoroughly familiar with these terms and settings. PhotoGenius may have a video on how to use your particular brand/model of your camera. If not, check for a RUclips channel from the manufacturer of your camera. This is how I became proficient with my Nikon. Good luck!

Thank you tor your video sir
Great information, well explained.
Thanks Paul.I,d like to know your opinion on filters for night photography

Awesome pictures, love the suggestion with photoshop. Do you have any tips or pictures when trying to photograph a planet like Saturn? Thank you!
Great advice! I find the biggest issue above all else, including gear, are DARK SKIES! Light pollution will not let you get picture perfect photos.
Another great video Paul. As an aside Paul, how do you get the screen with the three dials on it, showing adjustments as you make them? Shutter, aperture and ISO. I have a D7200, D7500, and a D500, and I have no idea how to get that handy 'display.' Cheers mate.

Can you do a video about Star trail photography? I did one and had a lot of noise when I zoomed in.
Wazzup Sir Paul i recieve recently my first gift from my father it is Canon EOS Kiss Digital and i think it's too old too use but as a newbie in photography is it good to use ? Any tips for me ? Thankyou Sir Paul. Have a good day.
What are you using as a focal point? is it the boats or the stars themselves? Actually I have the same question about the other pictures at the end.
Nice 1 Paul
Thank you
Nice cup!
What's your iso set on for night photography?
Typically I would st the camera to around 100, sometimes lower if the camera allows.
Thanks for watching.
Good video Paul, Enjoyed it.

Paul I am struggling on night photography I have cannon oes1300d camera and five lenses
Hi Terry, If you haven't already seen it, many I recommend watching my night photography tutorial : ruclips.net/video/X5vogaSCmuk/видео.html
@@photogenius ok Paul I will check out you video on night photography
i just started astrophotographer and there is a 500 rule i learned and i use a full frame sony camera and without a star tracker, the shutter speed is only 2 seconds, how do you recommend 20 seconds??
torch is British for flashlight right?
Why does everyone think high iso causes noise it's becouse the camera didn't get enough light when you took the picture the iso just shows you that expose correctly and you won't have a problem
You forgot to mention ~7:00 to turn the Stabilizer off maybe
an amateur such as myself is not going to do this in or near a city. Need a star tracker to counteract the Earth's rotation
Astrotracer as found on the Pentax K1/K2 will handle that up to 4min exposures.Does the K3 have Astrotracer? Not sure ..

You are absolutely correct, the clip of me selecting manual focus was taken from another video (to save time) and if I'm honest I missed that the IS was turned on... Well spotted!
Left just as confused after watching lol , what the hell is an ISO . never mind , i'll take up painting instead.
ISO reflects, basically, how “sensitive” the camera will be to light. On a bright day, use a low ISO number like 100 or 125; use ISO 400 on a cloudy day. Indoors, you may need 800, 1600 or higher. This is a basic photography element, as are f-stop and aperture.
