So if you were zoomed out to the max (say 50mm) then you will only get 14 sec of exp before you start to get trailing. At 8 mm you will get roughly 90 sec. Give it a try 
Also focusing is a bit of a challenge as will if you don't have manual focus. There needs to be something bright enough for the camera to focus on. |
Thanks for the info,Unfortunately as it is not a manual camera it only has fixed exposures,15 seconds,30 and 60.So this would most likely be a problem for me ,also with focusing as i cant see any stars on the lcd screen ,i think its because the sensor is not very sensitive.Will definetly give it a try though.
thanks orestis
