    As in landscape astro or photos of specific stars/clusters? I've done plenty of the former

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Probably just landscape astro. Specific stars would require more gear than I could justify.

    Just a quick note that the SX50/SX60 you were talking about in the other thread aren't really capable of Astro stuff.. settings don't allow long enough exposure at a sufficient ISO. Great at other things, just not this..

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
