How high was ISO when you took that photo?
It's really amazing!
Beautiful.

Thank you very much!
I've got one question also: I have Canon EOS 600D, but it's sometimes pretty hard to focus the stars correctly, so that they would not be blurry. How do you focus on the stars during taking a pictures in the dark, because sometimes stars are so tiny and it's hard to tell, are they on focus or not. Many times I've got this all wrong...
Well, sometimes I've focused on the Moon for example and then took pictures of the stars, but even then some pictures have gone wrong. Damn.
Waiting for your answer,
Indrek.

It's really good video and I've watched the whole thing.
But I have a question: I have also an usual lens 18-135 mm and this lens does not have an infinity symbol. So is it true that when my lens does not have this symbol, I can focus ONLY with that way that I take a photo with automatic regime find the furthest sopt to focus into? Or did I get this wrong?
Best wishes,
Indrek.

All lenses have an infinity point. my 18-55mm kit lens didn't have a focal gauge on it either so I used to just manually focus on some very distant lights or the Moon if it's out using the LCD live view with my old Canon 450D.
Just make sure whatever you focus on is nice and clear and don't touch it after that. It can be easy to mark a lens when you have found the infinity focus point too. Just a small mark of white out or a piece of tape will be perfect.
I actually took my new camera out last night to experiment with the focus while waiting for storms to arrive (they didn't quite make it to us). It turns out the original white infinity mark is highly precise at 16mm so I need to check what the red 16mm infinity mark just beyond that is actually for.

Can't see stars here and they fell out of my eyes a long time ago.
Great shot.
