I've tried this six times with success only once. Guess what, I didn't pay attention to the settings. Shooting with d300 w/18x270mm Tamron lens. Most all, with one exception I can't see the craters in moon. I've tried everything I know. Low ISO,turned off anti-vibration,speed 125, f11,mirror lock up,tried all different metering, messed around with different focal points, different speeds,ISO and of course tripod with only one success. Anyone want to guess what I'm doing wrong? Thanks Bryan
Hi, here are the best settings i use. ISO 100, f 8, timing changes with conditions, i use a tripod with the centre locked down, and i use a remote release.
The best time to take a full moon is when it is low in the sky, you will get a lot of colour reflected from the sun. Here are a few shots taken with the Nikon P900. Regards, Alfie.
