This is a very wide open question. I suggest you go to your book store or Amazon.com and get Michael Covington's "Astrophotogpraphy for the Amateur". There is a lot of math in it, but he also keeps things simple. Its a good guide to show you what you can do with an unguided camera and what it takes to guide a camera. Best investment I've ever made towards photographing the night skies. Rob Thanks, Rob -- Rob Miracle Photographic Miracles 203 Carpenter Brook Dr. Apex, NC 27502 http://www.photo-miracles.com
