Thank you for explaining how to actually focus on the stars, this is the point most people actually fail to show and it was my biggest doubt, nice video !
If you don't have a remote laying around and don't want to touch the camera (so it obviously is more still). You can maybe just use the timer on your camera if you have one?(Just tought of this when watching i had a camera for 1 day so i have no idea if lot of cameras have this.) Great video btw
Another trick you can add to your "bag" when focusing on stars is to use the digital zoom on the camera's monitor. Zoom it in a much as possible and then focus. The change in size when moving the focus ring will be more evident and you'll get an even more precise focus. This is a method that can be used on any subject, day or night, and with any lens, wide or zoom.
Not sure how I stumbled on your channel Mallory, but I’m absolutely loving every instalment. I was in the US last summer & just had an awesome time shooting the night sky in Nebraska. If your ever down here in New Zealand I’ll take you to my fav Aurora shooting spots on the outskirts of my town.
Welcome and thank you so much for watching, Paul!! New Zealand is on the SHORT list :) Would love to experience aurora down there as I only saw aurora for the first time this past September in Iceland (which was WILD!). Thanks again for watching and lmk if there’s any specific content you’d like to see in the future :)
Thank you so much, Mallory and greetings from Italy! the two photos of the Milky Way that I can see in the video are simply phenomenal! Please I would like to ask you two things: 1) are the photos taken from a single shot of 25 sec? 2) I noticed that you inserted the advertisement for a polarizing filter. Is it also useful in astrophotography? Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for explaining how to actually focus on the stars, this is the point most people actually fail to show and it was my biggest doubt, nice video !
I would very much like to get into astro photography in the UK and I came across your video. Very well paced, clear, not tech heavy and well spoken. Subscribed. I’m hoping to get a Lumix S5ii in the January sales (I know it’s a hybrid camera but that suits me) then get out into the darkness. Do you have any videos for simpletons on editing? I don’t want to spend hours editing and I like that the LUMIX allows in camera LUTS as for just social media and my own prints, I don’t require hours of complex editing. That would be great! Many thanks 🙂
To eliminate camera shutter shake entirely, I have used the bulb setting. Hold a matt black shield/hat or similar over the lens (without touching it of course) then open the shutter. Wait as long as you like until all vibrations have ceased, then remove the shield for the requisite time. I usually count the seconds. Once the required time has elapsed, cover the lens again and then close the shutter.
Trying to learn using existing equipment. I have a Canon Rebel T6 with a stock EFS 18-55mm lens and a fairly cheap tripod. Is it possible to get some shots with this before spending a lot of money on better equipment? Good video. And Go Dawgs! Although I went to Georgia Southern University, I was a Dawg fan long before then!
Nice video, thanks for sharing. How yo get rid og color mottle that are inherited from dslr?...do calibration frames actually remove them?..thanks and CS
Great video, Mallory! Another app I use for Astrophotography is Clear Outside. Takes a little getting used to but is excellent for checking cloud cover.
Hi there, nicely done video. But on one thing I don't agree: Shutter speed! No matter how wide your lens and how low your f-stop is, at 25 seconds you will ALWAYS have trailing stars. I use the npf-calculator (available online) as a start, but even my mighty 50 at f/1.8 will starts showing star trails at 4 seconds! Just saying ...
One thing to help with trailing stars is getting a star tracker. It allows you to do high exposures without the star trails by rotating against the earths rotation
@@golddog8221 Agree! And guess what's standing outside in my backyard? Star Adventurer GTi - and I love it! On vacation though I do just take my camera and tripod with me. And even with my 18mm lens I stick to 12 seconds. But stacking very many of those often results in remarkable results, I am fascinated again and again! The new move shoot move star tracker might be a new option from what I read and hear ...
@@stefanschneider3681as someone who knows nothing about photography in general but wanna start doing something like what you have going on in your backyard or vacations do you have a list or something of what kind camera and equipment I should get?
@@BlackIce6 My advice to start: Get a little tripod for your smartphone. Nowadays they make surprisingly good wide-angle shots at night. Play around with that, and if you still enjoy going out in the night, loosing some sleep or freezing your but off, then get any camera you can manually set shutter speed, ISO, f-stop and focus and a better tripod. I started with a Canon 7Xii on a tripod, a fun little beast! And still love those first pictures today! You find them used and they make a great start. If you STILL enjoy this, upgrades are endless: Better camera, better lenses, a telescope (which is just an even better lense), but first of all you will need a star-tracker or a mount the follows the stars. Then learn how to stack many many pictures with special software like Siril. Does that help?
@@stefanschneider3681 it very much helps! Thank you so much for that information and the subtle warnings about the cons I will try out starting with my iPhone and kinda just follow what you recommended it sounds like a great way to start familiarizing myself with it! any more information other than what you just explained and you may think is of value would be greatly appreciated too though I really appreciate you taking time from your day to help me out
Mallory great video. I would like take the plunge to the milkyway astro landscape photography. I have a fujinon 8 mm / f3.5 and my camara a fuji xt5 thats own a 40 mp sensor. So i am windering if you have experience with this lenor what do you think of this len. Thanks in advance.
I didn't know about the bright monitoring! I found it on my a6700! Thanks!!! I have a 11mm f 1.8... Should be OK right? 11mm is around equivalent 16.5mm. Super useful this video!
I realize this video is older, but I stumbled on it because I've been really interested in astrophotography and other landscape photography. I'm super new and don't even have a camera but buying one has been on my radar for a few years. I don't have a super huge budget... but am willing to invest in a decent camera and lens for a beginner. Would you have any recs on brands or cameras to look into for starting out? Especially if interested in this type of photography? Anyway, I also noticed the artwork on your wall... GO DAWGS! lol and this video has been super helpful and informative. Will definitely check out some others. Thank you for sharing.
Planning to go to Death Valley next month to do some night sky photography. Super helpful tips. How about using the Sony Imaging Edge app instead of the remote shutter cable?
I honestly haven't used the app for shutter purposes but I have friends who have! Great thing about that is I believe you can get a rough preview of your images as well... not 100% sure though! I have just always used the cheapo from Amazon. Happy shooting out there! I've heard it's incredible!
Hi. I came from your Leica Q2 video. By the way, I have seen some samples of Astro ones by Leica Q2 in a local store. So if you don’t mind, I would like you to shoot those photos and videos with your Leica Q2. I understand today’s videos is mainly for beginners, but I’m looking forward to seeing it! Thank you for making good videos too😊
Happy to help, but want to make sure I understand the question. I typically use a shutter release cable, if that's what you mean? This helps avoid camera shake :)
The green comet that is about to become visible I’m going to try and get a photo with a 300mm 5.6 or 100mm 2.8. Might suck but at least I’ll have fun trying.
HA! Do you have a star tracker? F5.6 is totally doable if you track! I’m actually going to try and capture Orion with one of my lighter hiking zoom lenses (see my hiking photography vid!) and see what happens… lmk how it goes!
Just a little addition to your gear listing. The headlamp MUST have a red light option or it is useless for astro due to the fact that without it you will destroy your night vision by turning it on and your work will be twice as hard to be successful at
Absolutely!!! I would say go wide! Like 14-24mm. And yes, prime lenses have much less chromatic aberration (stars stretching in the corners) and will perform much better overall! If you are in the market for some and are on a budget, check out KEH.com ! Tons of great options to choose from. *not sponsored lol
@@mallorydavisphotography yes! I love KEH and MPB. I know you mentioned f/2.8 aperture, I’m strongly considering a couple lenses at f/2.8, will I get enough light in to maybe punch up in post and hopefully find a keeper or two?
Really nice and comprehensive video, thank you, I’m really new to all of this, very confused by the number of cameras out there and don’t have one either, I have been using my iPhone for it so far but want a good beginner camera for taking shots of the stars, andromeda and Milky Way, what would you recommend as a good beginner camera and lens setup, thank you,😊
Tip: Dim your Live View display. I've taken many Milky Way shots that looked great on the camera display only to find them too dark on the computer screen. It will also help your night vision.
Hi Mallory My Canon EOS R100 refuses to click when the original lens is removed and T ring is attached. How do I make it click? Any ideas? I keep the camera in fully Manual mode and manual focus. Still it is not clicking.
I see you are using the Sony RIV. Have you use a lower megapixel camera, like A7III or the A7S3? My real question is, you capture more details at night with the RIV than with a lower megapixel camera?
So in your photograph of a mountain and the milky way above it, how did you get the mountain show up in your picture....you could see the mountain like it was daylight seeing details then with the dark sky above with the milky way....
Hi Mallory, I just clicked on the link for that camera and it is way outside of my budget. Would you happen to know if something I could buy for under 500? I basically want to take pictures of the universe to put on T-shirts and I have a Canon rebel EOS T 100 and I followed the directions. I heard from people as far as aperture in the iOS and no matter what I did all I got was pictures of noise. Any recommendations would be amazing. Thank you.
@@mallorydavisphotography Thank's for your insight. I tried it before with my 30mm at f1.4 but at shutterspeeds longer than 4 seconds, the sky is overexposed. Is that due to light pollution?
@@mallorydavisphotography Here in Italy the light pollution is very high...i'm near Alps (PIEMONTE e Valle d'Aosta) but in north of us...in south there are a big cities ;-((( The Astrophoto post processing is very hard for me but i'm interesting in these process......
You make it look so easy, I’m having a hard time. I have a Nikon D 7000 I’ve been looking at videos and sit my camera but it still comes out black, I had it astro modified I think it’s info red I have photos pill I’ll go out tonight to take some photos of milky Way. Michael G.
You will definintely be able to use this to get some great images! I did a quick google search and it looks like the max (or smallest) aperture that lens goes to is 3.5 so I would recommend ramping up your ISO a bit to make sure you let in enough light!
My boss was wanting me to schedule my vacation one year and I told him that I needed to check the moon phases. I pulled out my phone and opened Photo Pills as he's looking at me strangely. He said "you're serious aren't you ?".... I said "yep, gotta plan around a new moon"
@@danielmihaylov5525 actually, there's a lot of great tutorials on deep sky photography with just a basic dslr and telephoto lens, no eq mount needed, Nebula photos does some really good tutorials on this and ofc shows how to post process the images too and same thing with lunar photography, just need telephoto lens + dslr to get started

Always good go to the basics, thanks for sharing! Going to Pantanal in Brazil's country side. Bortle 1 :)
The tripod is more for the shutter speed than aperture. Aperture does not effect motion blur, esp. at infinity focus.

On the shutter speed, are you familiar with the 500 rule? It’s the golden rule of untracked astro to reduce star movement.
Yes! I usually use PhotoPills to calculate sharp stars shutter speed though. Didn’t want to get too deep into all that with this intro vid tho!
theres also the 300 rule, which is for aps-c cameras

I have a Sony a6400 with two lenses:
Sigma 30mm f1.4 and Sigma 18-50mm f2.8

Is a canon eos t100 with 18-55mm good for astrophotography

Glad I’m not the only one 😅😅😅🌚🌚🌚
Just a reminder, Astrophotography is a much larger genre than just the Milky Way and nightscapes.
Touche! This is meant to just get folks started... more to come on advanced techniques and deep space!
What other things would you recommend then?
@@richtigmann1 Moon, planets (with telescope), deep sky (eg Nebula, Andromeda, can be done with a telephoto lens on a camera)

and same thing with lunar photography, just need telephoto lens + dslr to get started
Photopills iphone alternatives?

I don’t have a remote shutter. I just set self timer for 2 secs. But I will get one.
