Hi Nathan

The longest you can

In general, I used to use around 5 minutes, but it depends if you're guiding.

If you're not guiding, your exposures will be as long as you can before you start getting trails or elongated stars. That might only be 30 seconds.

Use ISO800 or 1600 to start with.

Hope that helps!
