For only 200 seconds and no post processing, that is an awesome shot Astrolounge.
Were you shooting from a light polluted area?
There is alot more detail in that image. I can see that with some processing, the running man would come out nicely.
I'd be interested to see the configuration of the aperture in those DSLR's.

it was shot from the observatory at home, on a scale 1-10 for light pollution l would say about 4, l'm pretty well protected from the city lights being on the other side of the Dandenong Ranges.

Great shot mate. The running man is easily seen. I'd like to see what that camera can do for 30 minutes as opposed to 200 seconds.
