Hi,

the GR II is not well-known for its astrophotography abilities but nevertheless it is so small that it can be carried everywhere.... Also the internal infinity preset is surprisingly accurate.

This one was shot from Refuge de la Blanche (2,500m) in Queyras (French Alps) during a 3-day ski touring trip.





ISO 1600 and f/2.8, 30 * 15 sec (with internal intervalometer) on a tabletop tripod set on the snow, stacked with Sequator (with 15 dark frames and 15 flat field frames).


regards,
Dan

This camera is unknown to me and is not likely I could get this quality with it . You have sent some very interesting images .

Awesome pic. 15 seconds looked like just right before you start getting star trails.
