The Moon

[AlexMozza]

Im trying to ave for a good Digital SLR as mine came with lots of attachments.
All you need is a nice long exposure and its amazing what you can see!

Taking pictures of the moon was a surprise in terms of the settings required on the camera. You need to set it to full manual and have it setup for sunny f16 rule

All im gonna say is wow for the iphone and telescope shot!    Mental...the clarity of that hooked up to a SLR would be proper niiice

i have had problems getting my t-mount and camera to hook up properly... cannot for the life of me get the focus correct... it is so frustrating

i took some years with a 12inch Newtonian, and a few different cameras. The moon is pretty easy to shoot quite well, but Saturn was always a pain to get anything decent...

Anyway, moon:






Saturn:



And this is the telescope, including Venus and the Moon in the background:

This was taken at about 10pm at Snetterton Race Circuit...looks more like the Sun!

I could do with editing out the stray cloud and fencing.

This was my attempt at saturn. Still need to sort out the correlation.
