What equipment / cameras were used for this?
A Nikon D800 and a GoPro Hero 5B.
The GoPro was run off of a 10000 mAh battery pack for extended shooting time.
The D800 is what was used to capture the Milky Way images.
The D800 was just using the internal batter, which does quite well for long sessions. My problem with the D800 was that I shotchanged the intervalometer - only setting it for 120 frames - ~ 1 hour. My intent was to have it stop right around nautical twilight, because that's the point where my exposure setting was going to get blown out. And my math flub had it stop an entire hour or two before nautical twilight.
But, the good news is that I've been shooting some stuff around the office, and may have some new stuff worth putting together soon.
