airconvent said:nice effort, reiw..and taken without a telescope too!
actually, the 12x zoom would have been considered a built-in telescope..
I tried the full moon at x12 previously but can't get the image right. was using "P" mode though..

The 1.7 Tele-converter seem to cause the purple fringe.
reiv said:its ok.. this thread is for discussions of how to take the moon and sharing pics of it..
hmm.. need to scout around for a 2nd hand telescope liao.. heh.. i wanna see mars..
djork said:if you need information regarding scopes, try www.cloudynights.com
scopes are classified into 3 main types, a refractor (the type i'm using for my moon shots), a reflector (mirror based design), and catadioptric (a combination of mirror and lens design).
just be careful, scope purchase can be just as addictive as the BBB syndrome of DSLR. once you get a scope, there's a whole range of accessories that follows, so read the reviews wisely.
