I was hoping to get some tips on how to shoot a constellation. I do not want to capture star movement. Just the actual constellation itself.
My personal understanding of photography leads me to think this:
-wide open apeture to allow more light in
-not too long of a shutter speed to prevent trails (<10 sec?)
-I don't know about the ISO. I would guess low to prevent noise but higher would allow more light for a quicker shutter speed.
I have two lenses. A 50 1.8 and a 18-105 3.5-5. Which would you suggest using? Thanks for any help.
