Hi Paul I just purchased my first camera a Canon Rebel T7 and I enjoy learning from you, your training skills are excellent!! Glad I found your channel. Thank you!!

I started watching your photography tips and I must say that I have enjoyed everyone I have watched. When comparing your videos to others I have watched, you are easy to understand, you don't keep rambling on, your straight to the point on the subject matter. I am an older man in the USA and just started Photography with a Nikon 5300. Thank you for doing what you do...I am learning every time i watch. Don't stop!!

Excellent. I’m an amateur at best using a Sony Zve 10 with a 13 mm prime lens with an F1.4 setting. Haven’t seen a video that explains the basics as simply as you. Thanks brother

The books I've read talk about the rule of 500, where 500 divided by focal length = longest exposure before the stars start to trail. Since I have a Canon T5i, I have to account for the crop factor. Thus, my shortest focal length lens is a 16mm F2, but the formula is now 500 / (16 * 1.6) = 500 / 25.6 = 18 or 19 seconds maximum exposure. Hopefully, I'll be able to try it out this fall and see how it works.

Watched your “How to Photograph the Moon” video many moons ago (sorry about the pun) and it improved my Moon shots instantly. Thanks for your tip on using live view to manually focus, will take that on board next time I do any night photography. My old camera didn’t have it and as you say focusing on stars is difficult. Another thing worth mentioning is to use a 2 sec delay or remote shutter release so the camera has a chance to settle, any movement whatsoever results in blurry stars. Keep up the great teaching Paul, I have found your channel invaluable over the last 3 years or so 👌👍
