Will you be heading out to learn how to capture the Milky Way? If you need help please don't hesitate to contact me! :D
How to capture milky-way in a little light pollution? What's the proper setting?
Book a plan ticket to a dark spot. It doesnt happy. That's why it's called light pollution unfortunately. Maybe try a light pollution filter. But it depends how bad your area is.
I have the canon 250d with Tokina 11-16mm 2.8 lens. Can you help with my settings please ?
Hi! Thank you for this video but I'm still confused.
I'm so new to this I don't fully understand.
Do we really need to buy an additional lens kit to get good results?
I plan to photograph the night sky with xt3 as well as the northern lights along with us in the subject .
Would that work?
Also your links are down like the fuji best night lens link.
I wish you had brought the cat home🙈🙈🙈🙈
hahahahha
Poor thing 😿😿😿
Great tutorial Matthew, you provided alot of insight that I have been looking for before trying out astrophotography, thanks a million !!
Glad it was helpful!
Good advice,hopefully I can put it into practice soon . Keep them coming
Awesome Bob, really glad that it could help! Hope to see the results!
Excellent tip for the focusing. Thanks !
Thank you Matt, very helpful tips. 🙌🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Think I might just give this a go with the 18-55 now. Didn’t think it was worth the effort but you’ve just proved me wrong! Nice one cheers bud! Great videos. Been watching them all consecutively all morning. Keep em coming. Cheers
Thanks so much mate really appreciate the support!
I have that exact set up (XT-3 & 18-55). I have always been hesitant to try astro photography but this video has given me a little courage to give er a go. Thanks, great video!
Glad I could help! Maybe my course could help you out even further www.matthewstorer.com/product/beginners-night-photography-course/
Just an FYI, The focus ring on that lens isn't mechanical. If you get your infinity focus during daytime, switch to manual focus, turn the camera off and remove the lens. you can then twist the focus ring all you want it won't effect the focus. When you get to your site, Attach lens, power on and you are ready to shoot.
Your tape may only confuse you if you depend on it and the ring gets moved while in your bag. you would need to realign before powering the camera back on, or you will move your focus.
The tape trick works wonderfully on lenses with mechanical focus rings (meaning they change the lens focus with or without power).
Dearly noted thank you so much :D Dont use this lens much for night photography usually only manual focus lenses
I'll be following your videos . Ive been interested in astronomy for a few years and have just got my first dslr so tips for night sky photography are right up my street . Thank you and keep up the good work.
Amazing, I hope my latest videos have helped you. I have a course which is on a flash sale for 24 hours at 50% off if youre interested. www.matthewstorer.com/product/beginners-night-photography-course/
Great tips , kudos for doing this in below zero temp..
Well done, can’t wait to try it
No problem, if you do need more info I do have a photography membership that will help: www.matthewstorerphotography.com/online-photography-membership
love the kitty
Hahah she was friendly!
I just picked up my first real camera (fuji xt30 with the 18-55) can't wait to go out and shoot the milky way after watching your video.
Thank you! :D Goodluck with it and have fun :D
Thank you ever so much for doing this video. I learned so much. The irony is that when I saw your Milyway shot at the end, it happened to be the same shot I saw yesterday on an FB Fuji Astronomy page post. Excellent, thanks, its inspring. I know how much work goes into making these videos.
Amazing thanks so much for the nice feedback and really glad that it was able to help you out :D
thanks for this. It was very helpful. headed out to try it out this week in the anza borrego desert in southern california
Hey no problem hope it helps and goodluck :)
Great video Mattew! I going to try my hand at this!
Awesome. Super keen to see what you get :)
Really insightful. Thank you
You're very welcome
Thanx man great video and effort , I'm a fuji shooter as well and I have been practicing my star photography with some old vintage glass and a focul reducer as well as a rokinon 8mm it's been fun , have a great trip and look forward to following along , Peace
Awesome Garth! Will be looking at some different Fuji lenses and whats best for milky way photography soon so hopefully that will help!
Great demonstration !!
Thank you
Love this advice,I'm a novice,just upgrading my camera,even though it's to a canon 500d,can't wait to get out there
Awesome buddy. Would love to see the results. and milky way season is so close :)
Aww the cute kitty
Thanks for the video
Hahaha no problem ;)
Good vlog full of information. I struggle with astro photography. Love the cat also... Thanks for sharing...
No problem James. Hopefully I can help you out with your astrophotography then :)
A year late, but thank you for this video, Matthew! This is invaluable, for both novices and the experienced. 📸
Glad it was helpful!
absolutely awesome tutorial mate!
thi channel is gold!
Happy to help!
Interesting video mate. I hope to see you in scotland we must must must make it happen. As for astro I have done this so can combine a day and night video together.
Thanks so much mate, we will try I am unsure where I will be at certain times in Scotland, thinking it might be easier to catch up and come to Snowdonia or something closer to you? We could make this happen so time also!?
That music is everywhere!!!
ok sorry
@@matthewstorerphotography nah I love it. Wish it was mine
Heading to Scotland in a couple of weeks and want to try and get the Milky Way, so am going to watch all your videos and hope ha ha cheers
Thank you so much for that video! Noticed it accidentally in the feed and now subscribed and watching other videos :) I am really new to cameras and stuff, I am basically at the start of my journey, and seeing that you can get that even with a kit is so encouraging!
I have Canon 80D with 18-55mm kit lens, so I definitely want to give it a try now! Just need to understand where and when I need to be to see something like that :) still struggling with understanding that :)
Thank you so much, fantastic video!
Thats awesome really glad you found the channel and hope it can help!! I have a series coming up explaining all this so hopefully it will help you out tremendously. If you need help with certaim things please dont be afraid to ask :)
Wow I used to swim in this lake every summer while I was growing up in Mojstrana, Slovenia! Just learning about photography in San Francisco and this brings back so many memories. Wonderful video!
Ohhh wow I have one of my favourite photos every of Mojstrana from Dovje side. It's on my website I have a tonne of photos from Slovenia and also many vlogs you can learn from :D
That cat's purr though. Great video!
Thank you! :D
This cat is awesome soooooo friendly
It really is, just wants to be loved and feel warm!
I appreciate this video Matthew. You've got a new subscriber
Thanks for the sub! I have plenty more night sky vlogs coming soon when the milky way pops out :D
Thanks Pal!
No problem!
Well presented to a newbie, also you actually read and answer your viewers 😧. That’s amazing, I subscribed based on those things... 👍
Hey Gary, I read every comment and reply to them all. So if you need any help with anything let me know :D
Definitely want the night sky series Matt!
Awesome Jade, will be available April time if everything goes well :D
Awesome, thanks!
No problem :)
Thanks Great Tips
No problem glad you enjoyed
Great video Matt, looking forward to your night sky series!!!
I did not photograph the milky way before, but I will give it a go in the desert of Jordan at the end of this year. Think I will have no problem at all, after watching your 12 video's !!!!
Awesome. The pressure is on now to hopefully have you as an expert before you go :)
@@matthewstorerphotography that would be great👍
how did you know that this was exactly the question I had about this lens lol THANK YOU
Glad I can help :D
Yes please. 12 part Night photography
Thanks 💐💐
Great Video and amazing shot 👍 😊
Thank you
“Make sure it’s in the bloody frame” 😂 As a Brit I Loved that. Feel the Commonwealth love :) And this is an absolutely superb video. Thank you!
Cracking video Matthew, deffo share your love of the night sky my next video is my first milky way shoot this season, can't wait to get out for more. Do you use the cameras in build noise reduction I've used it and apart from the extended time it seems ok.
Thanks buddy - appreciate it! Nah I dont - will only affect JPEG images anyways
this is a great, no bullshit video. thanks!
Thank you :D
thanks. can you video shoot stars with xt3?
Hello Matthew, great video. Absolutely love the detail description. I am currently on a canon eos rebel sl3 kit lens which is 18-55 f/4-5.6. What should be my settings to click such brilliant images like yours. Thank you for your help mate. Cheers!
Glad it was helpful! crank up that ISO youll need it with a F4.5 aperture
Thank you Matthew, good stuff! Can you direct me to the night photography lessons you mentioned in the video, please.
Sure thing! Here it is here - www.matthewstorerphotography.com/online-photography-membership

Hello Matt, Is it possible with Xt200 and 15-45 mm kit lens? if yes what would be the settings Please help. Thank You
Anything's is possible. Follow the settings I used on this video. Largest aperture F3.5, Shutter Speed of 20 seconds and ISO 6400. Then go out with a 40-60% moon and it will help you light up the foreground a little. Happy shooting!
Great videos, Matt. This one especially, given that it is filmed in my beautiful country, Slovenia. Thanks for the lovely advice. I am now convinced the XT-3 is the camera (with the kit lens) for me. For video, what kind of darkness do you think this combo can take/at which settings without any extra lighting to avoid noise? Another thing - since the kit lens is not weather sealed, do you have any tips on how to protect it? All the best, Urban.
Glad you enjoyed it! Firstly I find the fujifilm cameras workable at around 6400 ISO and plus the 18-55mm has great IS in the lens. I would have to say that most camera are weather sealed to some point. I would always use a free hair net that get from a hotel or home and just put that over the camera + lens when it rains. 100% free and all I have ever used when travelling. Just tuck it in the backpack somehow
I came here to learn about shooting the milky way with a basic lens and left totally invested in that cat and where it is now.
great video, keep it up bro :)
Appreciate it
Thanks Matt, this content is invaluable to me as I just decided to jump into AP. I'm actually witing for my Fuji x-t20 and Rokinon 14mm umc f2.8 lens to get here in the next few days. I've been looking for some content around what the proper set up would be for this pairing.
Great to hear! Hope i can continue to help and provide :D I have a full astrophophotography course that is stil for sale for the next couple of hours only 9.99 euro for 4.5 hours of content! www.udemy.com/course/night-photography-masterclass-capture-stunning-night-photos/?couponCode=8973B4BD76F113340D55
Joey Medici I would recommend you to get the Rokinon 12mm f2 instead. The 14mm is designed for full frame. The 12mm let‘s in twice the light and you can expose 4 seconds longer, which is crucial on a crop body. Got mine for 230€, which is an insane value too
Joey Medici I have a picture with the xt2 (same sensor as the xt20) and the rokinon 12mm on my insta vincent.bbm and I think the results are stunning!
The cat is awesome :) You should have kept them :)
Thanks buddy - appreciate it!
Matthew this is fantastic! Hoping you could give me just a few base pointers, I am a beginner at astrophotography and want to test my Fuji XT10 + kit lens (XF18-55mm F2.8-4.0 R LM OIS Lens) camping this weekend. I am traveling cross country and need to get the hang of this asap haha! Thank you so much!!!!
Absolutely! You'll killl it love to see some results on Instagram or something? Keep up the great work you'll get there!
Nice one Matt and excited to hear you are coming to Scotland to film your series. Just hope the weather plays ball with you but you know the scenery on offer, so spectacular images await. When at Kilchurn Castle recently was out doing some astro but didnt quite get the lighting of the foreground and the castle nailed down correctly so wouldnt mind your thoughts on how best to achieve this. No worries if you want to include that in your tutorial. Will drop you an email ahead of your visit 👍
Yep this is something I hear often. That will be the end of the series. How to make the entire image visiable and also noise free. A lot of work goes into it, but we will get there. Yes, please do I would love that!
kit lens is a dirty word when talking about XF fuji. XC lens, maybe? Great vid,Matt!
This is true, I have only ever used the 50-230 XC lens
@@matthewstorerphotography i have on of those. dont use it as much as i should.
What are your thoughts on the xt30 with night photography? I just picked one up! Great video. Lots of help! Thanks
Fantastic! I love all the Fujifilm cameras - get a great lens (Samyang 12mm F2.0 - geni.us/6o7AOih) perfect cheap lens for Fuji users
I was wondering why the cat wasn't running out to the wild but then realised she was snuggled up for warmth against you 😂
I use the Fuji XT2 and Fuji 16mm f/1.4 for doing astro. Hate the focus ring of the 18-55, although I still use it as an everyday lens.
Yeah the 16mm f1.4 is a beautiful lens - wish it was a little wider! maybe a 12mm f/2 similar to samyang!
May i know the settings you usually used for night sky shooting with fuji x series cameras. Means what to turn on/off .Thanks!!
Hi there - just came across this video and it was great . I really enjoy doing exactly this; but I am in a budget. My current dilemma is upgrading my camera - I’m currently debating between a canon rebel and the 5d mark ii. Any advice please ? Thanks in advance
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
me watching the cat for the first 3 minutes 👁️👄👁️
hahaha it was a lovely cat
Awesome video mate! I recently got a Nikon D3500 with the basic 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 kit lens. I've been wanting to do some astrophotography with a few mates in the foreground as subjects, and the Milky Way as the main part in the sky.
What ISO and exposure time would you recommend? Should I go with the rule of 400 or 500? Thanks in advance :)
Thanks nate I am glad that youve enjoyed it and hopefully learnt something!
I would using a second shutter speed at f3.5 at 18mm. Then, depending how much light was around from the moon an iso value of 6400.
The longest shutter speed you can do is 18seconds before the stars move, thats why I suggest 15seconds then if its to bright reduce the ISO value :)
Hope this helps, email me if you ever need further advice :)
Matthew thank you for this video. Do you anything in long exposures with the xt3 and kit lens?
That is ok no problem :) i do have a couple where i explain how to shoot long exposure simply :)
I enjoy your videos very much and find them very informative. I have a Fujifilm X-E1 mirrorless camera and a refractor telescope. We purchased an Astromania adaptor mount, and I want to start taking photos of the sun as well as other photos of the galaxy. Do you have any tips and tricks to be successful with this?
Thanks for sharing - sorry not really my field so no info from me :(
Great video, lots of useful tips! Did you get to film the 12 part series? If so, where can I find it? :)
Coming soon! Still recording it, had some trouble with the covid situation. You can jump over to my website to subscribe and you will get early access and a massive sale. Launch price of only 9.99 euro!
hey mate, great video! My camera is a Canon 750d with an 18-55mm lens, what settings should I use for astrophotography?
Hey mate, same as what I said in the video its general
Hey, great video thank you so much, can you help me with settings for my camera: Canon EOS 1100d DSLR with the 18-55mm kit lens? I will probably be shooting in my backyard.
Your intro is really cool
Thank you so much! :D
Hey Matt gonna try this n share the results
Amazing mate - look forward to it!
Awesome viedo Matt.. you inspired me to go out and take milkyway shot with my x-t2 and kit lens :) Just curious which software you used for post? Lightroom is not quiet working for me
I still use Lightroom for 60% of my workflow but also Capture 1 works well for Fuji
Thanks for the video Matt. I'll be heading out to make an attempt for the first time with a friend this month. I always had this question btw, can you see milky way with your naked eyes?
You say its a cheep lens but its a Fuji kit lens so really is very good compared to most of the manufacturers and its not really that cheap if you buy it separately :)
Buy a sharp 1.4 lens - its pretty cheap compared.
Hi Matt - Super handy video thanks! I'm heading to the Dark Sky Project at Lake Tekapo in NZ in a few weeks. I have a Fuji X-T10 with the 16-50mm kit lens. I'm a complete amateur, do you have any tips for me? Thanks
Glad it was helpful! Umm ISO is your friend! Max Aperture on the 16-55mm, Wide open at 16mm and dont be afraid to shoot at ISO 6400 to capture those images if you have to :D
Hi mate. My set up is Canon 1200d. Standard kit Lens 18-55mm. F3.5 What settings would you recommend please ? Amazing photos aswell 👏
Thanks so much Callum. I would suggest the same as used in the video. They are go to settings for all cameras
Hey Matthew, great video! I have taken a few shots in the past with X-T3 and 16mm 1.4 with success. However I convinced myself last fall that I needed full frame, and the jury is out if that was a good decision. Currently I have a Nikon Z7 and 14-30f4 and 50 1.8 z lenses. Think I could use the f4 with success? The 50 may be too narrow field of view possibly.
Yeah anything is possible, espically with full frame and if you had enough light for the foreground, give it a shot. Head out shoot F/4 at 6400 ISO and see what happens :D Should be fine Nikon have amazing low light capabilities
Great one Matt, l hope you took the cat home, minus 7c is too cold to leave him out there.
Regards Rob
Thanks Robbie! Haha funny enough the cat actually lives out there! Crazy...
Hello. I've recently purchased a xt10 and a 18-55 2.8-4. What are the best and easiest ways to get great shots for all settings in day and night ect. Hoping to start getting some good shots I can blow up and print.
Apart from the preparation (focusing etc.). You can only do this by trial and error like you've done 👍
Yep, all about getting to know your camera in multiple situations. Totally agree!
Canon 200d mk ii f/4 18-55 what should be my shutter speed? Really helpful video
500/ focal range (x crop sensor) = Shutter speed
Hello, Mat. Have you tried the Sony a6400 and Fujifilm X-T30? I am wondering, between those two, which one is best for astrophotography and low light photography?
I have never tried the Sony A6400. But they would be similar. I can recommend the Samyang 12mm F/2 for both cameras if you go that way
📸🎬🎥
Thanks
I have a Pentax K-1 Mark ll that has astrotracer with a Rokinon 14mm f2.8. What ISO and kelvin setting would you recommend? Astrotracer will allow me to go as much as a 5 minute exposure.
Thats really cool!
Curious what you’re using for your shutter release/timer. Are these done in the body (T on the shutter dial)? I recently bought the x-t3 and appreciate your video to learn to shoot these night photos.
Hey mate, with the X-T3 line up they have it inbuilt as you can push the shutter speed right out which I love and just use a 2 or 10 second timer before that.
We have the same kit so I'll give it a shot tonight. Couple questions: Are you using back button and focusing peaking to nail focus? Do you use the same shutter speed when you stand in the composition? Thanks!
Scratch that, it's nearly a full moon tonight. Although, I did pick up that Photopills app and it's very cool! Great suggestion.
No problem I was about to say its a super moon this weekend. Youll have to wait 7 to 10 days for less moon. I manually focus its best to do this during the day before you head out. Secondly I did use the same Shutter speed when I stood in the image :D
Planning on going out tonight and just found this video. Using the Fuji xt3 and the smayang 12mm. Guessing around 18s should do it. What do you think
Yeah was thinking the same good night for astro! Yeah around the 15 seconds to 18seconds is what I recommend for that set up. I prefer the 15seconds to reduce the movement just a tad :D
@@matthewstorerphotography thanks for getting back, can't find my bloody head torch so will wing it a little there.
Wait. Does the tape work with a focus by wire lens? I assumed that would not work, as it can be bumped or moved while the camera is off.
Hey mate, nah it doesnt but I didnt want to make it focused just on that lens - it was more generic for everybody :D
@@matthewstorerphotography ok cool. wasn't sure, it's a good tip.
Hi Matt, great video! I new to Fuji system and just got my XT-3. Plan to shot a Milky Way on Laowa 9mm. May I know how to set the camera to shot at 10s, 15,s 30s without a shutter release? I tried to set my camera at ISO6400, SS 500 & F2.8 and use the Fuji App, the remote just won't hold. Wonder what I need to do in the camera menu instead. Thanks.
You will need to find the timer on the camera set that to a 2 second delay or 10 second delay. Thrn on the top dial set the mode to 'T' and adjust the shutter speed to around 25 seconds for the Laowa
Great learning. I have the same camera and lens. Shall try. One doubt. How does one protect lens from dew blurring the image in long exposure photos in cold night weather?
Keep it warm as it possible can, or get it used to the cold gradually :D
@@matthewstorerphotography Thanks
Bought x-t20 with the 18-55 kit lens a couple of years ago as my first ‘real’ camera and was told the lens was really good. Good to hear that confirmed. I took a some Milky Way shots out over the ocean here in Maine to avoid light as much as possible. Used PhotoPills to set up, just as you showed. Got pretty good results after post in LR. I tried to keep the ISO low to avoid noise, so I think the post compensated, but may have introduced its own noise. Otherwise I used your same settings. How much post processing do you do? How do you handle the ISO noise? You must have done on this image to finish, yes? Do you have tutorial on LR post processing? Thanks for the great video. Especially because it’s the lens I have.
Regarding noise I wish to do a series next year on how to help that. But I am also starting a secondary youtube channel to do more of this type of content. But I use Capture One for editing Fujifilm RAF files because they are handled so much better. I can give you a 30-day free trial to capture one. But more to come from editing the images this summer :D
XT1, 10-24 F4
+ MSM star tracker ;)
I have 2 different Nikon cameras D60 and a much newer D5600 the kit lenses are both 18mm - 55mm .. Which do you think will give me the better star pictures ?
I have no idea sorry I have never used Nikon gear
Excellent Video.
I have a Fuji Tx1. I noticed you didn't use remote shutter release.
Do these cameras have automatic shutter time set on them.
Can you advise me please of the settings for kit lens.
Its 18-55mm. Thanks
Yes they do, plus mate it's ALL the setttings I used in this video. Same lens ISO 6400, Aperture F2.8 and Shutter Speed 20 seconds...
@@matthewstorerphotography Excellent. Thanks for the setting.
Hopefully contact you in future for advice 😁
Awesome sounds good
Bruv. We are waiting for that 12 part series.
Will be released soon, Covid stuffed this up completely
Matthew Storer it’s all
Good bruv, we’re excited for it!
Hey Matt, did you stack these images together afterwards? I'm intrigued how you got your final result with you in the image? I'm presuming you didn't increase your depth of field? Was the subject (You) slightly out of focus?
Nope, I didnt stack anything. True the human (me) is not perfectly sharp and in a more 'professional' way I would be stacking them. I will get in more detail about this on future vlogs. this was just more basic :D
@@matthewstorerphotography Thanks for the reply! It's not often a popular TH-camr actually responds lol.... So in your final image, have you left a light on to paint yourself into the image or something or does the camera just pick up with the headlamp on alone? I'm sorry if I sound like a complete novice but I'm afraid I am!
I've seen images of night photography with foreground illuminations and reflections on lakes etc but whenever I've done anything in the dark I've had to light paint it into the image so it's baffling me how people get a foreground and other subjects other than the milkyway etc!
When's your trip to Scotland? There will be two other Fuji shooters there in March, we'll look for you!
Amazing, I am heading there from the 17th until the 301st. I will be doing the 500 route the first 8-10 days then be in the Isle of Skye!
coming from Canada
@@rpw1335 Awesome, send me a message on Instagram or something so I have your details and I will follow your travels and say hello if we pass each other on the trip! Always love meeting some Canuck's!
