Muchas gracias por el video, estuve intentando enfocar la vía láctea con una nikon D7200 y lente tokina 11-16 y no logré el enfoque, aiun utilizando el modo live. ¿Qué puedo hacer? GRACIAS.
Thank you! Set the focal length you want (11-16). Set the aperture to F2.8 and now bump the ISO to around 6400/12800… go to live view (mirror flips up) … now you should be able to see some bright stars show on the screen. Digitally zoom a bit using “+” button onto a star, and then use the focus ring to adjust focus until that star is sharp or at its smallest size. Now zoom out of the digital zoom by pressing “-“ and you have successfully set infinity focus at desired focal length. Use remote trigger to take pictures without disturbing the lens. Repeat the process if focal length changes. (lens and camera both should be in manual focus mode prior) Hope this was helpful. Cheers!
OMG what I wouldn't give to spend time there with my camera and telescopes, amazing. Call me JEALOUS!
Excellent pictures! I was curious to know what the Nikon D7200 could do in astrophotography.
I recently got a Nikon Z6 and it is a monster. Checkout the latest video of astrophotography on that
Amazing!!!

What lens did you use? Fucking amazing shots man
Nikon D7200 85f1.8, 70-200f2.8 and 11-20f2.8
I have the Nikon P900 and am waiting to see if it is able to capture images like these, or is it only good for zooming in on the moon...? 🤷♂️
P900 has a smaller sensor and it would be hard to get this kind of low light performance.
