Nice. I never get tired of pointing my lens at the moon. It's got to be the single most photographed object.
thank you! i agree, i'm such a space lover myself so i think i won't get tired at shooting the sky too..
Very nice. The moon is not as easy to photograph as it looks. It takes some patience and attention to detail. You have a great shot there.
thanks a lot guys, a friend gave me a 500mm lens i also want to try but i need a new adapter. i can't wait to see what it looks like!
Beautiful picture! Could you please share your setup and settings? I'd like to try shooting moon, but I don't know where to start. I currently have a GX1, but my lenses are not suitable. But I have a 75-300mm tele on my DSLR, so before I sell it, I'd like to try a couple of moon shots. Thanks!
thanks! sure, i put the camera on a cheap tripod very low to keep the setup steady as the lens is quite heavy. i had to make the framing and focus very quickly because i found out the moon actually moves pretty fast! settings were f11 on the lens, iso160, shutter speed 1/100. i guess best is not touching the setup for the shot, i would use an external remote or in-camera timer. i've set the exposure only on subject, didn't care about the sky!
here is another one with the same lens but attached to a teleconverter, i forgot i had one! i wish i was vegeta so i could fly around the moon :118: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/100578592@N02/9564513891/" title="Moon! de julienbieber.photography, sur Flickr"> {} "1024" height="576" alt="Moon!"></a>
