But going back to astrophotography and deep space photography, its hard to punch through atmosphere when stars are twinkling .....

Dont forget you can also use mirror lock as well Cliff, this is supposed to reduce vibration too.

Take about 20 images and stack them in registax. You'll get great detail.
