I have some Wiccan friends I might surprise with a photo of it --
if it's visible in my area that night. I did some moon photos with
my friend's Canon 30D a while back, just leaving it on full auto,
and they turned out pretty well. Unfortunately, I haven't had the
same results using my K-x. What's the best way to go about shooting
with manual settings?
What lens are you using?
I photographed the moon the other night with a "new" used Tamron
500mm f8 mirror lens that I bought a couple of weeks ago. The image
of the moon was large enough to fit within the spot metering area of
my K20d, so I just shot normally with bracketing.
