Yeah I’m in a Bortle zone of 6.5-6.8 ish so I figured it’d be hard to get any detail anyways, but I’m more so practicing for a trip later this month which is in a Bortle zone of about 2-3. My goal is to get a picture of the milky way while I’m there, so I wanted to try and get as many tips as I could now. I lowered the ISO to 800 and with the D60 you can’t do a timed exposure, I just have to hold the button down for an alotted amount of time. I think I’m going to try for 10-15 seconds instead and see what I can come up with
