for the starting tripod / dslr, as your focal lengths are really short, you can actually get away with quite long photos, just be aware that the ball head can be a little painful if your hoping to make a panorama with it, horizontal rotation is fine, but vertical requires releasing the ball head which can make a multirow image a little more awquard.
Thanks Ryan! I've got a more standard type tripod which I can use if I want to do vertical. I've been using Stellarium and SkyView for a while now for visual
