Description

Lens at 50mm f/2.8. From my suburban backyard, using a plain camera tripod.

This is a test at 50mm where the lens is supposed to have less field distortions. I reframed the targets every 50 frames. Unfortunately the final image is tight, but at least the stars at the edges are nicely registered.
