Moon Photography

My three best attempts..

Looks very good

How did you do it? I just tried once, taking the picture through normal binoculars and maximum zoom (3x).

The result is of course not as good as yours, but still i was surprised anyway about the details.

thanks, i use tripod and 70-300 mm lens, it takes a lot of time to set camera and focus correctly

I walked outside two nights ago to try but I then realized it was cloudy. It has been raining ever since. Makes me sad.

Not photography, but I want this, badly:

1200mm f/6 white lens. No, but really, it was taken tonight through my brother's telescope. We don't have any camera adapters so I was just freehanding it (which seems to work better (for the moon) than a tripod since you have to get the camera at such a ridiculously precise angle to actually see anything, and the lens has to be as close as your eye would be). A third full resolution. Prty gud, not sure about the blur though, not sure if it's from the telescope (reflectors are the worst for photography, but great otherwise what with the low cost for lots of focal length and aperture) or my lens or not having the camera perfectly straight to the focal plane. Exif shows 20mm, lol.

Went outside and saw the moon was looking nice, so grabbed the tripod and had a shot at what I could get.

The first is uncropped. Pretty good for the standard 70-300mm lens.
