(However you definitely don't need the camera I used to take this. You can get a cheaper camera with similar result. It's all about what glass (lenses) you have.)

Let me know if you like any of the images from my instagram. I'd be happy to provide full-res wallpapers from it. 🤙

*Edit: For those interested in my setup: ·Nikon D7100 ·35mm f/1.8

I'd like to reiterate the fact that you definitely don't need the camera I used to take this. You can get a cheaper camera with similar result. It's all about what glass (lenses) you have.

I have a Nikon D3200, with the 2 kit lenses; 18-55 f/3.5-5.6, and the 55-200 f/4-5.6.

I made a barn door tracker, which works great.

How does the Nikon AF-S 35mm f/1.8G DX stack up for astro-photography? Is there something better I should look into, for around the same price?

As kind of an add on, does the barn door tracker sort of negate the need for a larger aperture lens?
