hi, I also have a Nikon D40 for 3 yrs now but I'm only able to use it thoroughly and learn to use it just now, am really an amateur. I'm always using the auto setting then but now I'm able to use the M,A,S,P settings but still needs more practice though. I have a sigma 70-300 mm lens and I would like to photograph the moon and its features detailed, tried taking photos but I cant get the details very clearly.

@alancherryfrancisco hello. You should learn about photography first. To photograph the moon you'll need a small aperture, like f8 and medium exposure.

wow.. i love ur work. i have a Nikon d40 as well, and i find it very difficult to use at times. could u tell me what settings u used to get the high speed photo shots - e.g. did u select Manual, which f number, etc? I am finding this camera quite hard to us :( thank u and again, love the pics!

[ticor2d2]

@2006kcl Hello. Thanks.

I almost always photograph using the Manual setting. For the drops/high speed shots I use 1/500, F7.1 and flash. And a tripod as well.

It's a very easy to use camera.

@ticor2d2 hi there. thanks for the reply. im going to try this today. what do u suggest as a backdrop? i'm broke, so have no idea how to create a DIY studio for these shots. what do u recommend as a backdrop? cheers

[ticor2d2]

@2006kcl You don't need a studio. You really need a good lens. You'll not be able to do these high speed photos with the kit lens. I use a 105mm Sigma Macro Lens. As a backdrop I suggest an A4 paper sheet. Try different colors. Try, also, a coloured A4 sheet under your water recipient if it's transparent, you'll get nice colors on the drops. Check your youtube mailbox, you'll send you pics of my little diy studio.

Cheers mate.
