Finally! A Non-nonsense clear tutorial for beginners! THANK YOU

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!

Great video. I love how it’s just so straightforward without a bunch of fluff

I tried this with excellent results even in my yard with a good deal of light pollution. Thanks 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!!

This is amazing tutorial…Simple and straight and very informative.

@4:05 hit pause. That is a beautiful shot!

One important thing to remember. You can only photograph the milky way in dark-sky regions. Long exposures from your back garden will almost certainly result in washed-out skies, thus no wonderful milky way pic's to be had.

So I followed your advice, wide angle lens, high ISO, 30 seconds and I just loved the results. Thanks so much!

I agree with the majority here - no-nonsense clear information - 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!!!

OMG! I'm so happy you are back! You got me started years ago on dialing in my astrophotography! Thank you so much!

Yeah! You're back 🌌😍

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.

Wow...great to see the KZfaq pioneers of this genre finally post again. :D

The first in a long time. hopefully not the last

Simple and informative. Easy to learn. Thanks guys!

Welcome back... You've been missed

Just learnt this trick - to set AF for stars - set AF to single, turn life view, set iso to the highest possible and zoom life wiev to its max, point at bright star, set AF for it and then turn AF to manual, do not change it. Get back to lower iso and set other needed settings like 15 sec exposure.

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.

Excellent Video and straight to the point. The best video I have found on shooting the Milky Way

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.

YAAAY!!! You are back!!!! GREAT VIDEO..thank you!!

Liked and subscribed. This may be the best video on technical settings I’ve seen yet.

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! 👍👍📷

This has been by far the best video i have seen on Astro Phogography. Full of vital information... Thank you!

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.

Thank you so much for all your videos, I've learned so much! Astrophotography is the best! Nice to see you guys back.

Thanks for the simple and straight forward directions. It's much appreciated

This was the best and shortest video for the topic. Very precise to the point, the rest is experimentation with the gear. Subbed!

Is this a Christmas gift?

Thanks, Folks! Great tutorial.

FINALLY!!! :)) More!!!

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.

Good to see you're back. Do you have a post explaining that low ISO noisier comment? Would love to know more!

Awesome, clear, efficient instructional video! The links to websites and apps are great too 👍

Outstanding! Just what I needed as I go on my first Milky Way field trip. Many thanks.

So helpful. Thank you for the tips

So helpful - thank you so much!

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!

Great video keep up the great work!

Thank you so much for this!!!

This is a no BS video, Thank You so much.

Finally ! And duo appears ! Welcome back !

Awesome video and tips!!! Keep it up!!!

so helpful , Thanks ,, i wrongly assumed the lower iso would be better

Excellent tutorial. Very descriptive and succinct. Thank you from Waterdown, Ontario

Just the video I was searching for. Thanks!

When my brother bought a new camera and we decided to do some astro photography, we got lucky as there were no clouds or moon, thats the first time i noticed milky way in the sky with naked eye. It was the biggest grandest sighting in my life. I felt silly for not noticing it in my 30 year old life.

very simple guide but very helpful. thanks you so much. clear skies!

Thanks a lot for sharing this info. Your video is short but to the point and she has a beautiful voice. 😉

Welcome back! You got me started this past summer with astrophotography in Northern Michigan!

Great, thanks for this, really informative

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.

Lovely short but supercompact video, KZfaq needs more of this!

This was the best tutorial I’ve seen yet

This is some amazing tips on astrophotography. Thank you for your tips and tricks!
