Any tips for meteor photos

Last edited Sat Oct 20, 2012, 07:10 PM - Edit history (1)

I'm using a Canon 50D

I plan to use 30 sec exposures at ISO1600 as wide as I can get.

I'm thinking ---- put the camera on continuous and tape the remote shutter button down -- with the idea to take a pic every 30 seconds.

The good news is I'm in a VERY dark area and it's going to be clear.

Any thoughts?
