Thanks guys.
The key to the moon, is expsoure.
You can't use an Automatic mode, as it read too much darkness and overexposes the concentrated light emited from the moon.
Rule of thumb, to shoot the moon.......
Whatever ASA/ISO you're shooting at, is the shutter speed.
So, if you're shooting at 200iso, shoot at 1/250 of a second.
And F11-16, in that area.
You can bracket your f stop, as finding the perfect stop for your area will be key to great shots.
If you live in an area like LA, usually f11 works great, as there is more 'shiz' in the atmosphere above the city.
If you are out in the sticks and have a crystal clear view of the stars, shoot at f16.
Also, a good sharp lens and no cropping in post, will get you the best details.
This is obviously a lens that most won't shoot the moon with.
Canons 600 f4L is a sharp piece of glass !!!!!!!!! :rocks:
Have fun..... shoot the moon !
