If you're doing it for you and if you like them that's all that matters, but Since you asked for an opinion I'll give you one I'm not a big fan of the deep blue water

Christmas is acoming and my better half is looking for a copla of these drives for her pics. As wildlife photographers we tend to accumulate a large quantity on our sorties into great outdoors, especially her. She tends to shoot 2 or 3 more than I. In fact on our latest trip to the western Wildlife Refuges she came home with over 15,000 snaps!!
So could youse fine ladies and gentlemen give me some suggestions on what are the better ones. I contemplated on going with external ssd’s but to me the prices are a wee bit too much. The average price of over $200 for a 1T and close to $400 for a 2T is a bit much. Especially when you can get a regular 5T for less than $200. Hell, for the price of 1 1T WD Passport @ $250 (on sale for $230) I can buy 2 or 3 regular drives of the same size.
She’s at present a Mac Lady running about a 3 years old one so something good with this system would be necessary.
So I’d appreciate some ideas on some reliable suggestions.
Thanking you

That is why there are PP programs like LR and PS that reduce this to mere scientific discussion. Thanks for the post and keep on shooting.

I'm curious couldn't you shoot an HDR photo and achieve the same thing?

In response to lesdmd, I have a nikon D 500 and there is a focus delay Setting/function where by I can set it for say 1 to 5 seconds and while panning or scanning should I come across a telephone Pole, car, person whatever while shooting a bird or moving object it will delay refocusing while holding down the BBF for the set amount of time, thus not losing the original/ intended targets focus.

I have the D 500 and use the 18 to 300 Nikon And love it. I also understand the 18 to 400 Tamron is nice and both would cover just about anything and everything you mentioned. But of course there are many other lenses made for many other reasons and specifics but for an all around lens the 18 to 300 works well for me. I also have A16to 80 and A150 to 600 Tamron because I enjoy birding.

I say if you want to get into Astrophotography, get a Go-To mount right off the bat.
That's a mount you could use now, and as you progress with telescopes.
(Because you will sink into the black hole, once you start... )

Eventually, you will want to get away from DSLR's and into real astro cameras.

I looked the 2 tracking systems up online and I think for an extra 150 bucks or so I would go with the newer version. I see where it was also mentioned that eventually I should get away from the DSLRI read something about a cannon astrophotography camera what's the difference?

I have a number of questions concerning astrophotography lenses equipment etc. I presently have a D500 and will eventually go to a full frame, but for now my question are in regards to my D500 and equipment to buy for astrophotography. I have a Tamron 150-600 G2 5-6.3 a Nikon 18-300 3.5-6.3 and a Nikon 16-80 2.8-4. My questions are as follows.
Should I buy a faster lens 1.8/1.4/1.2 prime
20MM or larger
35MM
50MM or other
Or would it be better or just as good to get, And excuse me but not sure what it is called the mechanisims used to rotate with the earth/stars.
and or any and other considerations I am may be missing.
