Can't remember where I found the formulae for the attached table , will post it if remember but this will probably help


ie a 200mm f/2.8 will give 11th mag stars in 2.1 seconds with a star trail 0.51min arc long. Worked OK when I was photographing the comet in Jan last year with just a camera on a tripod.
