Top tips for photographing night skies

  • Use a tripod.
  • With the widest F-Stop available; experiment with ISO settings between 400–1600.
  • Use a 10 second delay (self-timer) and set the exposure to around 25–30 seconds – the delay will eliminate button-press shake.
  • Try briefly illuminating landscape features in the foreground by quickly flashing a torch.
  • Beat the cold. Wrap up warm and take spare batteries!
