Recommended Gear
• Full frame digital camera
• Wide lens with an maximum aperture of f4 or larger
• Sturdy Tripod with ballhead - - See recommendations below
• Intervalometer - - See recommendations below (I highly recommend a corded off brand remote as they are just as good and much cheaper than the name brand remotes. Neewer is my go to brand.
• Bright Headlamp with red light option - - See recommendations below
• Warming gels for light painting - - See recommendations below

-------------------------------------------- STARTRAIL SHOOTING CHECKLIST. --------------------------------------------
• Plug in your intervalometer before mounting your camera on the tripod.
• Make sure your shooting in RAW
• Make sure your battery is 100% charged.
• Make sure there is enough room on your memory card to shoot for your planned duration of time.
• Remove all PL and ND filters
• Set lens to manual focus
• Turn image stabilization off on lens and in camera if equipped
• Turn of "Long Exposure Noise Reduction" AKA Long Expo NR
• Check your camera mode: Bulb for startrils and Manual for focusing and pinpoints
• Set the White Balance to your preference. I often shoot tungsten for no moon and 4,200 for full moon.
• Program your intervalometer
• Focus on a bright star
• Enjoy the night sky!
