I've learned that unless you have a great camera, photos of the moon never come out, lol
-
Yeah, I thought mine was decent but I just don't have the gear. Ah well. Least I got to actually see it, so I can't complain tooooo much!

You really need a tripod and if it's a DSLR: Set to shutter speed priorty and set the speed to something incredibly slow (if it's a fraction of a second that's still too fast) as well as increase the aperature if the moon is looking too 'dark'
-
I've done Night Time Photography before but my battery ran out earlier. X____X
-
It is, a Rebel Ti3. I really don't know much about it, but I don't have the tripod and have been messing with the settings to no avail so far. I dropped the ball on this one, totally. ^^; So would that be the 1/125 number on the display?
-
That would be 1/125 of a second, that's still really quick so I'd expect the image to be darker, but as the shutter speed goes down (like 1/8 is faster than 1/5) it may look more blurred as you hold it manually, it's really hard for me to hold a camera due to tremors. The alternative is if you can find something flat and angle it so all you need to do is push the button and chimp it until you find the a suitable setting.
-
I'll keep experimenting with it, thank you so much for the help and tips! <3

I can't help having Omnipotence as a racial trait for being a mouse.
But then I also still don't know Korean.

Actually, the best photo I got was at 1/1000 secs tonight. Different strokes for different folks.

That is amazing.
-
I find that a fast speed with a large aperture tends to yield crisper photos, if you don't want the blur of the moon travelling. ^_^ Give it a try next time you take your camera out at night. You might like it.

I've a fixed lense Lumix Camera, My Aperature settings are really limited. Once my battery charges I'll see what I can do tomorrow. :D thanks.

I'm glad I saw this journal because I thought it was tomorrow night and I would've totally missed it! Managed to get one photo that doesn't look totally like a blob, at least.
-
:O! Man, that would have sucked hard, lol
Nice!

Yes, and trying to get pictures but failing. Researching right now on how to draw some more light in, but ugh. x_x I should've done this before.
