I cancelled the order for tripod and got a Velbon DF-61 JD

I have only got a budget as I don't want to start off with a high advanced tripod. JD

So I swapped them over and used the settings above. Very clear pic of the moon! Will need a tripod to get a stable picture and less blurry. Ordered one of Amazon and used my prime delivery so should be here on Tuesday. Thanks everyone!!

Okay, I'll swap them over now.

I'm using the 18-55mm lens. I also do have the 75-300mm lens. JD

Hi I just tried those settings and still not giving a great picture :( Maybe the camera is not good at taking photos of bright faraway objects. It's good at taking normal photos such as indoors and daylight, but not night time. JD

Hi So in Newcastle there was a lovely bright moon and easily visible craters, thought "I shall take my camera up the hill and take some shots" Unfortunately they came out utter shambles, the moon was solid white and all blurry. I tried numerous of settings including night portrait. Is it me...

Thank you, I will try that area. JD

Hi my name is Jamie and I'm 16 years old. I've got a Canon EOS 1200D for Christmas accompanied with 25-55mm & 75-300mm lens. I'm still learning how to use the camera and having great difficulty :( JD :canon:
