How long an exposure to get milky way? I can see some star movement but not much.

Yes the startrail is surprisingly not too bad, which I’m happy about, as it’s ugly.
The galactic centre is on the horizons in the smog, so we’re only seeing one tip. With light pollution, like that, it’s amazingly successful :)
