Getting the most from the Lunar Eclipse!?

:eek:

You got your camera connected to a telescope?

At the moment 1/400 sec works well for me using a Sigma 70-300mm lens on my 400D and no tri-pod.

No-one, you need a tripod to get crisp moon shots.

I tried my darndest months back to get some good handheld moon shots, was impossible.

Cant wait to see yours SDK^ really want that lens. Thats gonna be my next bit of kit i think!

Here is my effort, i actually spent a while taking this after some duff advice settings wise from a google search - shoulda checked here !!

Was taken on my 30D with 70-200L + 2x Extender, still croped it a bit. Quite pleased for a first effort !
