hi what if you had a camera that has a fixed lens can it be possible to get good results in taking moon pictures and night scene shots i have difficulties in doing that the camera i have is a ge x500 digital camera
1st... if i'de had your accent i wouldn't shut the hell up for a second :) & 2nd... Great vide, and info... and keep it up... don't worry about the hater dislikes... Cheers "mate" ! :)))
long exposure for a moon shot? Why? The moon should be shot like any object in direct sunlight, so in other word, you shoot the moon like you would be shooting in day time. So 1/125 of a second at f 16 at 100asa, should give you close too the proper exposure, underexpose volontary to get a more detail moon, less bright highlights.
Thanks but no thanks for the video. Tho the tripod seem to be a good idea, to avoid camera movement...you preferably want to use a long lens.
They're not negative comments, just rectifiying certains non-sens notions. If this a serious tutoriel, the maker should know it's craft before starting giving advices. By the way he doesn't. It mearly suggestions, such as tripod and low speed...)))
Like mentioned, no tripod needed ( when shooting at 600mm and larger i will suggest a tripod but those who owns these kind of tele's will know these things.)
1/250s F8-F11 iso200 will do.
Focus at infinity?
Didn't heard of Depth of Field?
Which part lies beyond infinty then ?
Autofocus will do, but in manual, let infinity be the far side of your DOF window.
the moon is extremely bright and moves very fast in relation to the earth. A quick shutter speed like 1/250th of a second lets in plenty of light...however, I do think f11 might be a but too small of an aperture, f8 or 9 seems to be about optimal, at least for me.

I doubt your suggestion would let enough light in. Have you ever used an slr?

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Use a tripod? Manual exposure? Manual focus? 1/15 of a second?Duh.. What have you taught here?
What about ISO setting, F-stop, and white balance?
Waste of time.
There's 3 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

yeah try doing 1/15th of a second for a moon shot, it will probably be blurry.

Thank you,I have got some shot also,but the veiw of the moon will be diffrent ,depen on the time,date and place of the country we are.
Talking more slowly could help forign people also to use your experiance,and kids they can enjoy it.
I got some shot when I was in Japan,and with 18 times zoom ,it was like traveling to moon.
ad some more photo can help to undrestand it better.
You are kind person.
Thank you
