Nice! That would look great in a dark sky with the milky way!

Thanks Mike - and I'm getting the hang of focusing these ultra-wides too as the stars at the edge are pretty good right across the photo even at 8mm.

Ive been using an app called DSLR Remote on my android tablet which connects by USB to the camera and has been great for framing and taking the shots
