Thanks for stopping by and your interest in the subject.@chenee As far as I know, D5100 is a nice camera but the ISO capability is limited to 6400 ISO with a lot of chromatic noise showing after 3200 ISO. It may be possible to take pictures in moonlight but please remember that you need to supplement lighting with a torchlight to have reasonably fast shutter speeds (you would need at least 1/250 shutter speed for hand-held clicks with reasonably steady hands). Would love to see the pics if you try.
You're welcome and thank you for that very elaborate response also thank you for suggesting the torchlight. I think I have to show this comment of yours to my husband because of the very technical nature of using the camera. Again, thank you, and have a nice day ahead.
