you probably already know this, but when using long exposure times, you kind of need to prop the laser on something steady

eposure on my cheap camera only goes up to 30 seconds...

exposure time makes all the difference in the world

Exactly why i'm not going to do it..

Curiosity

yes i am very aware of this, but the need to have one is determined by the exposure time

But dont you want bigger diaphragm? so you can see more? and i wasnt necessarily trying to see the milky way. i wanted to see more stars than i can with my naked eye, and well, it didnt do that. and the maximum exposure time on my stupid cybershot is 30 seconds. But im hoping to get a Nikon D90...

hey Emc2, i have a quick question for you. ive been trying to take pictures of space, (because i saw your pictures and you inspired me!) and ive been using 30 second exposure times, F 2.8, and without any zoom, and what i can see on the pictures is almost as much as i could see with my naked...

yea where i live there really isnt a lot of pollution.. im beginning to think that its my camera.

I wasn't sure exactly which section this should go in, and i thought multimedia was best. Anyways, ive been trying to take pictures of space, and ive been using 30 second exposure times, F 2.8, and without any zoom, and what i can see on the pictures is almost as much as i could see with my...

Exactly what i plan on doing in the near future :D

Ahh ok. I'm not very experienced with disassembling lasers so I dont think ill do it anytime soon.

ok cool thanks guys. right now i'm really not sure what to do, because i know i'll need safety goggles once i up the power.. so ill think about it. But thanks!

It's a 5 mW, and i'd like to know if it would be worth pot modding. Would that make the laser more dangerous ( as in IR danger), and how much more powerful do you think it would be? Thanks guys

Well i dont know about other WickedLasers, but the CORE is a good laser :shhh:
