With my Pentax gear I can use the Astrotracer mode with GPS that uses the sensor-shift feature to extend sky exposure times... but this was 30 sec with 8mm, so not a lot of star trail even without other measures.It is hard to tell but I don't see star trails. Did you use a tracking mount like an iOptron? I plan to get one.
Exactly. Last night, the Moon was making the overcast sky really bright, and I really didn't think I could get anything but set up anyway. Watching it show up through the haze was awe-inspiring, and I almost forgot to trip the shutter. Had I not been expecting it, I would have been puzzled over what exactly I was witnessing, lol. Magnitude was -3.6I am going to guess the exposure time was not long enough for star trails ... the ISS rips pretty fast in its orbit, every time I catch a view it does not stay in the sky very long.
Thanks!Always a cool sight, very nice
