Great video Trevor, and thank you for featuring my shot! 😀 For stacking in landscape Astrophotography I would recommend the free Sequator software! 😀😎

@@RogerKeulen Sorry but that kind of cameras isn’t good for Astrophotography. You will be disappointed from the images you will be getting from that camera. I recommend you to save your money and get a DSLR with a 18-55 mm lens (and you can get better lenses from over time. And with the 18-55 lens you can get Orion Nebula or Andromeda and all that kind of beautiful objects over sky.). That will help you a lot I believe. With the MEDION camera you will have a lot of Chromatic Abberation that lowers the quality of the image. And it’s a Cheap Camera. You can’t really expect good results with it. I hope you didn’t got that camera since it’s been 2 months since your comment. I hope my reply helped you a little bit and I wish you luck and tons of clear skies with your journey.

I am in the process of starting to "build" an astrophotography rig. I was bitten by the astronomy bug with all of the hype of the Jupiter and Saturn conjunction this winter. Now, I just can't seem to get enough star gazing. My small telescope enabled my fiancee and kids to see the moons of Jupiter and just barely make out the rings of Saturn. I have watched a bunch of your videos and have become inspired to see more of the night sky. I am pricing out a DSLR camera...it's an expensive investment and I just want to make sure that I am getting the "best" camera....the "right" one for me. As an aspiring beginner, since I have not started yet, I am very happy that you have so much content posted. I will be sure to let you know when I finally start.

Thanks Trevor, really liked this video. I appreciate the walkthrough as I have just started and frankly, I cant tell my ass from my elbow in terms of what I am doing. But the journey of discovery, how my results are changing with every new piece of knowledge I gained, be it figuring out some different setting for my camera, or how to get better output from the stacker, man, I got to say, its very addicting and gives me the drive to push further and further.

Love your Videos, Trevor, i feel you've overlooked what may be the most important of all tips (forgive me if this sounds like lecturing). FOCUS, how to focus at night is the thorn in the side of any beginner, my fist few images were ruined after a long night of trying because my focus was off and i didn't notice in the field. Now, i find that using autofocus during the day to focus on a very distant object, then, putting the lens in manual focus and, using a bit of electrical tape to hold the focus point, helps greatly.

Susan LeVine Try the tape trick, works for me. Focus on a very distant object in auto focus mode during the day, or a distant light at night, let go of shutter button without triggering the shot so the focus holds, then, carefully switch the lens to manual focus and apply a piece of tape on the lens barrel on the spot that turns when the lens is focusing on and out to prevent it from moving. The lens will be focused in infinity and the tape will hold the barrel from moving during transport. Just make sure not to switch to auto focus while it’s taped or it can ruin the focus motor.

Only issue there is thermal expansion of the lens elements can easily take you out focus from day to nighttime temperatures. I suggest a Bahtinov mask on a bright star like Vega or Rigel instead. They aren't too expensive to buy or make, and pretty intuitive to use.

Great video as always, Trevor! As a photographer myself for 11 years, 9 of them being serious, I caught a few quick things you forgot to mention: If your camera supports RAW format, ALWAYS go with that. It takes more memory space and takes much longer to be processed by the computer than traditional JPEG (more so a standard computer than a gaming, and is greatly compounded in stacking), but you'll get the best results in the end. That's because there is no processing and compressing by the camera that would result in photo degradation. ISO noise reduction settings, exposure gain (also called exposure compensation, not to be confused with ISO), white balance, picture mode, etc. can be adjusted, ignored or changed by the processing software with better results. Also, in the Canon T6 I had, it had a WiFi adapter so I could control the camera with my phone with the Canon Camera Connect app up to 100 feet away, disregarding the need for a delay timer, and being able to squeeze in more photos in a session. If your camera has that, I'd highly recommend using it. You can even see what the results of the photo look on your phone, which may have either a better or worse screen than your camera, depending what you paid for both. And if you are far enough away, you just might be surprised to see wildlife show up. 🙂 Also, use several processing software on your computer. Each one processes differently, and you may like one end photo over the other.

Start with a star chart and a decent 10*50 pair of binoculars...work your way up to a portable telescope...your universe will start to open up. Gradually. Easy to succumb to aperture fever. Observatory won't fall from the sky into your lap. A hard slog, learning curve, respecting the stars which dance for you, for free, every night...it's a slow, patient, majestic process. Don't hasten. You'll eventually be rewarded. Like many other good Earthlings. Greetings from London 🙏 😷 🌈

If you are not wanting to forget about the beginners then acknowledge that we beginners haven't got deep pockets ie: we can't all afford photoshop, we stretch our budgets as far as possible to get a start in Astrophotography often making do with used equipment or the cheaper consumer DSLR's and lenses...you already have experienced this frustration of not having an endless budget, please consider helping us newbies along by offering us a tutorial using free alternatives to Photoshop eg: Open source Gimp with the Astrophotography Gimp plugin and other reasonably priced software, I suspect it falls short of Photoshop but I also suspect that it is a good tool until we can afford an upgrade to this awesome hobby.

Just got into dipping my toes into Astro this summer, and your channel has been extremely helpful. Also living in light polluted Ontario, it was great seeing the amazing shots you get from your backyard. I haven't had many clear nights (I mean, this IS Ontario), but I got my first, half assed pic of the Milky Way and even if it's dim, it was great to see. I used Sequator, Darktable and GIMP (all free) for editing. Been using GIMP for years, so it was my easy go to. Love the channel!

Last summer I took a picture of the milky way, just by using a tripod, a 150€ camera and a 18-55 kit lens, it looked amazing to me and really fixed me on astrophotography. So this year I did a holiday job and got myself an eos RP with a 14mm samyang, an Astronomik CLS filter and a Move Shoot Move tracker on black Friday, I'm just waiting for a clear night to try out my new setup right now.

But I recently started getting into other parts of Photography, like cars and wildlife.

Great video and info to help beginners. I started my night photo adventures several years ago and learning you can use your current lens and camera to start out. Just make certain you own a sturdy tripod. You'll find some nights the images look awesome and other nights the sky may contain too much moisture or light; all part of the game. Enjoy your time under the night skies watching the stars and listening to the wildlife wake up and their music. I've listened to loons calling and owls responding, coyotes howling and yipping; fun times!

Great video Trevor. I am a beginner at this, and while I've enjoyed seeing how far you can go with all of the astro technology available today, I would love to see more content aimed at beginning astrophotography. There are so many people out there that would like to try this stuff out without having to commit to a sizeable investment. Also, with Covid being an issue, it is almost impossible to find opportunities to hang out with experienced astrophotographers. Personally, I would love to see a video that goes into getting a good polar alignment without the aid of computerized tracking systems or even a polar scope (such as the rig a have 😁). Perhaps one aimed at easy to understand drift alignment, or useful smartphone apps that can aid in achieving a good polar alignment. Thanks for all the content you have put on here over the years covering a wide range of astrophotography interests and skill levels.

I’ll add: the timer is important but what also important is a delay exposure timer on DLSR. You have the mirror come up and if the shutter immediately opens that induces some vibration. If you can have the mirror open and shortly after the shutter opens it helps too.

Ioptron Skyguider Pro and Williams Optics Redcat51 both on their way. Can. Not. Wait. Stepping up from a 70-300mm kit lens on a skytracker pro. Soooo excited. Can't even thank you enough for guiding me into this amazing hobby!

Mine just came but on recent trip to Cherry Springs I didn't pull it out of the box. Was afraid to miss the shots in front of me with what I already knew. I went home very happy and this weekend I start lesrning the red cat. I waited so long!

Thnx for your video. I’m following you for a while. I’m gonna start this month with basic DSLR with 75 300 lens. Canon rebel t6i. Just to get the feeling as a beginner.

That was a really good informative video. The great thing with photography is that you never stop learning, I've been taking photos (mostly action and wildlife) for the best part of 30 years but virtually never tried turning my camera to the heavens after dark. Just recently though after watching many hours worth of your videos and trying some basic shots with comet Neowise and the Milky Way, I thought it was time to take my first steps into astro photography and more specifically wide field deep sky. At least that's the aim! I've just bought an iOptron Skyguider Pro which I'm looking forward to trying out when the skies clear. Being in the UK though that may be some time...! Thanks for all the great videos, they have helped me a lot and will continue to do so well into the future....
