Heading Bush

Okay, I'm heading Bush tonight for some very dark skies. I'm shooting off a few rolls of film.

Hold the fort lads (and lurkers).:thumbsupmate:

Hey Radar Whoa there!!!

let me get this straight...

off for astrophotography and you plan on using several rolls of film?

Now let me see, 60 minute exposures, 40 exposure film cartridge (unless of course you use 120 film then 10) gives us 40 hours PER (135 film) or 10 hours PER (120 / 220 film) plus travelling,set up etc. And you're going to do this tonight??????????:hmm:

Hi Mike,

With daylight saving and the extra hours of darkness we get, this is no problem.

This below pic shows three film cameras moving with the sky, another two cameras elswhere are mounted on simple tripods. 5 cameras + daylight saving, sky's the limit (pun intended :thumbsupmate: )

That's the way to rack 'em up Ray! Making the best use of the available time - top stuff!

BTW, I'm thinking of investing in one of those observing chairs in your pic. What's your impression of it?
