Ditto, I also use 400 speed.
Don't forget to take notes on your exposures either on the paper or recorder.
It also helps to note where your camera is pointed for when you get the
prints back. This is important especially if you decide to leave the aperture
open for any length of time. You'll have star streaks going on way and LEO
streaks going another and it can get kind of confusing.
