Hi folks
did anybody managed to stitch a night sky, with the moving stars?
I'd like to do that, but am not to sure about the result.
Here's a crop from a single testshot of the real situation, I took recently.
The idea is to get a similar pano like that one, but with the stars.
Meanwhile the zoomify was 3 rows with 7 frames - YCZ Planar 50 mm - each, for the night shot, I tend to make a single row with 5 x Distagon 28, due to the long exposure time of about 15 to 20 minutes at f 2.8!
The shooting will be at the end of year at 2200 m altitude, therefore pretty cold in the required cloudfree night.
I imagine the stitching process not beeing a big problem, as long as I avoid using the stitcher's CP's in the star-aerea of the frames. The scene is orientated towards south, the equator, therefore the star's trace are rather straight lines than circles.
Any insights?
