I belong to a photography club and this is absolutely the very best information I have ever gotten about shooting the Milky Way and shooting star fields in general. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I have to tell you your video is to thank for my amazing first attempt at astrophotography. While in Acadia NP last fall, I got a tip from a passing photographer about the Milky Way rising. I had about an hour to ramp up. I found your video, and it was spot on! I came away with photos worthy of sharing and a story to tell. It was the highlight of that trip. Now I can hardly wait for the next opportunity at the night sky at another National Park soon. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
I’m so happy to hear from you finally! Your work is so awesome! You inspired me to go out in the night when everyone sleeps and capture amazing constellations and Milky Way. God bless you!!!
So happy to see you both back. I recently 'discovered' your channel and have been going over your videos. All of them have been excellent. Happy to see you are again making new astrophotography videos. Really hope to see more from Lonelyspeck.
i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
Good to see video again in this channel. Man you were one of the photographers that got me interested in astrophotography. I still rewatch your videos to learn.
Good easy video. Another tip; cover the viewfinder with a cloth or similar to block out any light seeping in from the rear. I'm not sure about other apps, but Photopills can calculate the shutter time perfect for your lens.
I just ran across your channel. I've had "hit and miss" success with astrophotography before, as I've always had the interest but not the time. Now I have the time, the equipment and the desire to do it correctly. I've just reviewed a few of your videos, starting with this one....THANK YOU for such a direct, concise, to the point video on this topic. I hope you two keep this up... you are great at this..."having the hearts of teachers" and the talent too! 👍👍📷
I think it is one of the best video I have seen. In many ways especially and since you gave load of information along with examples in such small amount of time.
Thanks! Seems like every video I have seen recommends the self timer to avoid vibration. I have a Canon M50 and use the Canon app on my phone to take night pics.
Thanks. All these tips worked for me to take the Milkyway. I also use a shutter button by wire to minimize camera shake. Agreed that a national park far outside the city is an ideal dark sky location. Bring a few red lamps with you helps to see your ground and maybe camera setting in the dark.
Check out Trevors channel astroBackyard. He just put a video out using this camera. I am still waiting for clear sky’s and since I live in Washington state that may take a while. I can’t hardly wait.
This last summer I was able to shoot the Milky Way with my new Nikon Z6ii and the Nikkor Z 20mm f/1.8 lens. The best and most useful feature of this set up is the lens will focus perfectly to infinity each time the camera is turned on. So, with no messing with the focus ring or trying to autofocus, the images turned out to be perfectly in focus. The next opportunity I have to shoot the Milky Way, I will try your suggestion of using a higher iso with a shorter shutter speed. Can’t wait for clear skies and a new moon!
Finally! A Non-nonsense clear tutorial for beginners! THANK YOU

OMG! I'm so happy you are back! You got me started years ago on dialing in my astrophotography! Thank you so much!
i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
So I followed your advice, wide angle lens, high ISO, 30 seconds and I just loved the results. Thanks so much!
For me everything worked the night was turned into a day but still I couldn't see no stars like in the result
@4:05 hit pause. That is a beautiful shot!
Thanks! It was completely cloudy that night and we almost left at sunset. So glad we stayed!

Welcome back! You got me started this past summer with astrophotography in Northern Michigan!
Great video! Best astrophotographers out there!
Thank you 🙏
Fast and helpful. We appreciated your work ❤️
Welcome back! Greetings from Turin (Italy)!
Thanks. All these tips worked for me to take the Milkyway. I also use a shutter button by wire to minimize camera shake. Agreed that a national park far outside the city is an ideal dark sky location. Bring a few red lamps with you helps to see your ground and maybe camera setting in the dark.
Great video. Not to long, and nice & easy to understand. Thanks.
Very useful, straight to the point. Looking forward to exploring your channel.
So glad you're back (both of you). Great presentation and I'll be sharing this with my friends that are looking to start up with Astro this year.
Nicely explained
Glad to see new videos from you. I just bought the new Canon EOS Ra Astro modified camera. I can’t wait to give it a test run.
Super interested in the results from the Ra!
Check out Trevors channel astroBackyard. He just put a video out using this camera. I am still waiting for clear sky’s and since I live in Washington state that may take a while. I can’t hardly wait.
Just got the tracking number for an EOS Ra and the new RF 50mm f/1.2...will see what we can get, hopefully in a future video.
Thank you!!!!!
Thank you 👏👏👏🌹
Thumbs up for this crisp review and the video content work is really appreciable.
Such spontaneity ✌️
Great video ❤️
was waiting for a long time man.. 😀👍👍 so happy to see you guys again..
