RE: Astrophotography (testing)

Now we are talking! :) Beautiful captures! I love when there are clouds, by the way, as they add some drama and uniqueness to the scene ;)

I think it would be hard, not impossible though, of course, to achieve crystal-clear and sharp, no blur highly zoomed pictures of the moon, as even with the tripod, let's not forget the Moon is moving :) So that would rather be high ISO values, high shutter speeds and from my experience, the blue hour works best as the contrast between the Moon surface and the sky isn't that big at that time frame.

With your 1000mm lens, the aliens now have to go hide at the dark side of the Moon! :P :D

!PIZZA

Sort:  

The clouds... they ruined my full moon))) There were too many of them and I didn't see the moon)
Yes, I saw the movement of the moon on my monitor. But I think that the clarity of the picture was more influenced by city lights, this parasitic illumination. For such photos, you need to get out into the forest.
Blue hour... maybe it's just that the moon is not always in the sky at this time. Sometimes it rises much later. Although, I saw her during the day))

I hope to see green men there, but I'll have to stock up on a barrel for that !BEER

Probably that "blur" is combination of many factors. I'm quite busy lately but I may try the same exercise with my telephoto lens at 400mm and then crop.

I agree, there are many factors. I don't remember if I turned off the camera stabilizer... he may start fussing too. In general, we need a clean experiment in the forest on a full moon))

Cheers and !BEER
