The time I went it was... well about 1 1/2 hours away so I just decided to enjoy the scenery. Now though I have a 2nd SD card that I just leave in the camera so that doesn’t have to happen again.
Rip. Hopefully a good lesson learned though!

Too bad I can't see much stars here in my country compare to your place.
I think you probably could, just with a bit of difficulty. We have a lot of light pollution here because I'm right outside of a large city.

Yeah same here. I’ve been trying to tell James before that you can capture significantly more than what you can see with just your eyes. Even in extremely light polluted areas, it is still possible to get half decent results.

Yup. I could only see a small fraction of the stars in the photo. Turns out a 4 minute exposure can pick up a lot of light ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That’s pretty good for a 4 minute exposure! You should look into image stacking. Basically taking a bunch of long sub exposures, then putting them into a program which will stack them together. That’s the technique I use for my images, really let’s you get a lot out of em.

I'm pretty sure it was actually 16 photos, each a 15 second exposure. I'm definitely planning on doing stacking later, but right now I'm just figuring out the basics.

Ah, thought that may have been the case. Well, if you have any questions just let me know!

Hmm probably, we're just in mostly on outskirts of the city. Probably the city lights affects a little bit here.

My light pollution in my city is very serious, even with camera there is very low chance to capture those kind of stellar photos
