Got the T-Adapter and T-Ring to mount the D750 to it. It's hard to see anything on the screen so it's hard to get it in focus. Still need the wedge to do long exposure. Frost forming on the ground is too cold to use the hand controller.
Very different situation but the lens I use for Milky Way shots is full manual. Once I get it focused, I tape the focus ring down. I'm sure you are way ahead of me here, but I know a lot of astro work is done by stacking numerous images. The sensor in the 750D should be outstanding for long exposure high ISO work. Love my Canon 5D3 but sometimes wish I'd gone with the 750D.
