XS1100 0 Posted March 18, 2011 Yes the Moon looks great tonight but I think unless you can take real close up pictures with a lens the size of a dustbin its a struggle to get a picture as good as it looks if you get the jist,Ill get me coat........Prove me wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted March 18, 2011 When I'm out in France cause I'm in the middle of no where, there is no ambient light.We have telescope and its just amazing what we can see, nothing like it. If we get shooting stars its even better.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
always1more 0 Posted March 18, 2011 Thanks Lee, not bad for the 9600 Hiya Rose, you should be able to take some close up shots if you fit a camera to you're telescope I love watching the shooting stars to, generally miss them here though as it's nearly always cloudy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted March 19, 2011 great pics m8 ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BanditMike 0 Posted March 19, 2011 Cracking pics It's always the problem around here (the industrial North East), too much ambient light, you can't see anything Best place I've found for "star gazing" is Scotland. Generally go up each year and stay somewhere "out of the way". no light, minimal cloud, good viewing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
always1more 0 Posted March 19, 2011 Cheers m8's for the thumbs up Tonight it's supposed to be even closer to us but a bit cloudyier here today.BanditMike that's a bummer m8 know what you mean, I'm lucky I guess that I live on the edge of our Town, 2 minute drive takes me out onto the moss farmers land etc without Street Lamps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XS1100 0 Posted March 19, 2011 There very good fuji finepix s9600 did a grande job cool What settings or was it point and shoot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
always1more 0 Posted March 19, 2011 Afternoon to you XS.. I've had the camera a few years now m8, got a good write up, I can't afford a decent DSLR so this was the next best thing after reading up all the reviews http://www.cameras.co.uk/specs/fuji-finepix-s9600.cfm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
always1more 0 Posted March 19, 2011 Did you edit you're post before I posted the last lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
always1more 0 Posted March 19, 2011 I took the shots manually for some XS and some in aperture mode, just made sure the iso settings were set to 100 and then changed the shutter settings different speeds from 1 sec to 2000 sec also set the focus to manual to get infinity focus.I'll try and get the exif data shortly, just don't want to interupt a movie clip I'm uploading at the mo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
