I f you have another tele converter I would like to see shots at 2400mm :-) Have you done any wildlife photography (not Jester!) with that lens yet or what will you use it for? greetings Markus -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of William Robb

Excellent, and not at all boring. I see no significant noise problems in any of these. Great detail. Grace, who fancies the moon, is going to love them. By the way, don't disparage moon pics. I sold one that wasn't quite as good as these for over $200 through my stock house. Paul On Jan 3,

I gather the 1600 ISO is the third shot down? Nice image and, at a quick glance, the sharpest of the group. Likely a faster shutter.(?) Jack --- William Robb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: While the fellas were out for their evening constitutional, I looked at the heavens and saw a very clear sky

They all look quite good Bill. First is the best though. I think they look much better than the one you posted yesterday. For example, look at the upper right part of the moon, in these new pics, you can see the small craters clearly, in the previous attempt, you cannot. rg [EMAIL

Again, this series was shot with the A600/5.6 with the 2XL converter mounted. I attempted to process each file as close to identically as I could, though I gave the ISO 1600 file less sharpening as it was showing noise at that point. http://users.accesscomm.ca/wrobb/pictures/moon/moons.html

actually, I liked looking at these - as science, not photography :) Although full moons often have an adverse effect on me. But my eyes are simply not good enough to see any difference at all between the three shots. And I've certainly spent plenty of time doing that sort of thing - i.e.,
