best canon digital camera for night pictures image
Kainkin
I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTi with the standard 18-55mm lens that has an aperture of 3.5-5.6 I think and was wondering what is the best setting for that camera and lens combination to get the best results for taking pictures of the night sky (in terms of shutter speed, aperture, white balance, etc.). I do have a tripod but it is not equipped to move with the planets--no equitorial mount if that is what it is called. Also, I would like to get an inexpensive but still nice additional lens that may be better suited for astro-photography without a telescope, any suggestions?

something to try, go into your menu and turn on the long exposure noise limiter, then, get a remote and a good, strudy, heavy tri pod, go to a place with a good view of the night sky, make sure its a clear, windless night, set up the cam on the pod with the remote attached, use about an F 16 - 20 Aperture and point the cam on the biggest grouping of stars... now, zoom as far as your lens will go and put your cam into manual mode, set the shutter to "BulB" mode, this will do this: when you hit the remote, it will open the shutter, let it stay open as long as you want it.. usuall 30 mins to an hour, then hit the remote again and it closes the shutter, now, let the camera write the image to the card, this will take about the same time as it did to take the shot. What youll get: Star trails... youll be able to see the trails of light in a circular pattern made by the stars moving across the sky while your cam was filming it.. but, you need to be absolutly, in a place where you will not have any ambient lighting at all and a place with no wind or vibrations from you walking around and such.

Is there any way that I can learn photography but no need to pay big bucks?

I'm just a beginner...I'm interested in taking baby pictures since my baby was born. I only carry a regular simple canon digital camera, and I am thinking of getting a more professional one and learn how to use different lenses, photoshop, etc.. Is there any resources that I can learn more about photography? My budget is pretty tight...is there any affordable resources?
Answer
to teach people things like maths and english there are schools - just like photography, - funny concept schools they are popular world wide (i only say it like that for those that think running around snapping a thousand pix a day will produce great images)
my advise is do a night school course in B+W photography (if you really want to learn), otherwise any "digital" photography night course will help you produce better images of Jnr - congrats by the way
