Shoot with slow optics.<g>

Seriously, negative film has very large dynamic range. That's why most 
experienced astrophotographers prefer it over slide film.

Slide film is another story. With it you do have some concern about 
exposing too long and burning out stars, etc.

Unfortunately there is no good color print film for astro in medium format.
