How does a SLR camera shoot the starry sky?

1, if you want to take a good picture of the starry sky, you must first have good equipment, a good SLR camera with a good wide-angle lens, because only a good camera has high sensitivity, which is the key to taking a dark night sky.

2, in addition to the camera, tripod is also essential, plus cable release. Because it takes a long time to expose the starry sky, you can use a tripod and press the shutter with a cable to ensure that the photos you take are not burnt.

There is another important problem in shooting the starry sky, that is, to find an unobstructed place with a wide field of vision, and to avoid the pollution of light sources. Only in this way can the photos be clean and beautiful.

In addition, pay attention to composition when shooting. Whether shooting the beautiful Milky Way or the gorgeous star orbit, you must have a good composition. It is best to have close-ups of buildings or trees as a foil, so that the excluded photos will be perfect.

5, shooting the Milky Way, ISO should be set to 1600 to start or even higher, because the shooting time is longer, so the spare battery should be prepared, and the whole night shooting can't be ruined because the battery is dead.

6. Don't expose the orbit of the star for a long time. If you want to shoot a beautiful star orbit, you should pay more attention to the shooting position and composition. First, there should be objects in the foreground. Secondly, aim at the position of the North Pole star as much as possible when shooting, so that hundreds of photos can be synthesized into a beautiful circular star orbit photo through post-synthesis technology.

7. Finally, in the late synthesis, the sky is more important. In cameraraw or LightRoom, adjust the natural saturation and contrast to make the color bluer, so that the adjusted photos are more beautiful. Master these questions, and you are not far from taking the first beautiful starry sky photo.
