Thanks Raymo.
The other night I was using the 18-55 zoomed in on orions belt 5.6 iso1600 and could clearly see in the view finder but I'd switch on live veiw and had real trouble even finding a star using the 5x or 10x zoom.
A 10 second exposure and the preview is fine.
I thought I could turn up the exposure so it saturates the view and dim stars pop out.
ive used a meade lpi and web cams before but not dslrs before.
I better go back and read the manual again.
Thanks
Andy
