I vaguely recall the "600" rule where 600mm lens can be used at about 1
sec--somewhat depends on angle of declination too.  max time=600/fl

Oh, I see this calculator--better yet.

Yea, there is also a phone app of course.

I am still still not sure how to use DSS w/o much repositioning. Better
watch a tutorial.
