How much should I charge for a photoshoot?


So I took photography classes for two years at my high school (because that's all that was allowed) and was a part of the school yearbook. I have knowledge of DSLRs and I always shoot on manual or anything except auto. I also have knowledge of techniques like rule of thirds, depth of field, so I know my way around a camera pretty well.
I've just recently decided to start my own photography business, but I'm still really unsure of what to charge.
I have a Nikon D3000, a zoom lens (not telephoto), and a 24" 5-in-1 reflector.

My website is www.cjostphoto.weebly.com so you can get a better idea of my shooting style and quality of shooting… Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

Which is better--DNG or RAW files?


When I import files in lightroom there is a option to "convert to DNG" --does the dng have the same options in photoshop etc. And especially the camera raw dialog box and does the dng open in camera raw correctly or are some features lost etc.--etc.--
?

Nightscape & Cityscape Photography?


I'm new to photography I have a Nikon d3100 and was wondering how to take cityscape photos. My photos also turn out overexposed or underexposed and I can't figure out why. Like what should I set my settings to Aperture and Shutter. For example in Times Square nyc what would be an ideal camera setting? & also shout I leave the exposure compensation at its default or? When exactly do I change that?

Decent astrophotographing solution?


Hello. I am still researching about astrophotography and recently joined an astronomy club. My hopes are that in about a year from now I will be able to buy a decent telescope and EQ-G mount. I am still in a research phase of the astrophotography field but I am not new to astronomy or using a DSLR. So far I've managed to determine what I want to achieve and that is, good astro photos and decent deep space observations, also I don't like the diffraction spikes that newts do. Here are a few telescopes that caught my attention:
1. Sky-Watcher Esprit 80ED APO Triplet
2. Sky-Watcher 7.5" f/5.3 Maksutov-Newtonian Telescope
3. Sky-Watcher 8" f/3.9 Quattro Imaging Newtonian Telescope
4. Orion 8" f/3.9 Newtonian Astrograph Reflector Telescope
5. Explore Scientific Maksutov-Newtonian F/4.9 152 mm

I am looking into either a refractor or a newt reflector telescope. The research I have done so far told me that a refractors or a maksutov-newts are better for astro imaging than a newtonian (mostly because I don't like the diffraction spikes), but since price is an issue I am willing to do trade-offs in effort to get the best for the money solution. Keep in mind I am only a novice and I am still researching. So here is my question, which of these telescope is best for my needs and what mount would I need for that telescope considering the weight of all the extra equipment needed? Also what extra equipment would you get for astrophotograping for telescope you recommend? I own a Nikon D7200.
Added (1). I forgot to mention the Orion ED80T CF Triplet Apochromatic Refractor Telescope.
