Just an ordinary wide angle camera lense should do the job, I'd wager - and LOTS of film, or data-storage space 8^)

I have an Olympus C3030 digital camera. But it doesn't do well for long exposures because of digital noise. I purchased it about one year ago, and recently I tried the C4040 in an electronics super-store. With this baby, I can take a 16 second exposure with very little noise! Too bad I can't simply buy a new camera at this time. It owuld be neat to see 16 seconds worth of meteors. Too bad this won't happen again for 100 years.

Tx for the tip - I'm going to buy something new soon. Been looking at the high-end jobs. I want something I can swap lense with, if possible something that will accept my current large collection of. I might be wishing the impossible, and the manufactures aren't interested in meeting that need I fear.
