Don't get too enthusiastic there, there may yet be questions as to the key the Clanger is tuned to!I'll buy you a starter kit and post it out to you at my own expense!

et voila we've gone around yet again with Florence, Dougal and Dillan on the Magic Roundabout to arrive close to what was suggested on page 5 of this thread!
And I'm still puzzled why, given the moon is simply a lump of rock illuminated by the full sun, the exposure of (assuming ISO 400) 1/400 at f/16 isn't a good starting point. Going from f/16 to f/11 means an exposure time of 1/800; but since this would make the moon mid grey, we give a couple of stops more, resulting in 1/200 at f/11.
I have one of you from only about 3 months ago!!I'll jolly well post one Sue took of me 3 years ago
which won't be a pretty sight.
So 1/100 @f/8
Then 1/200 @ f/11 for ISO 200 film... Looney 11 working our fine fo Inverness!
if you want to have a smaller aperture then you need more exposure
I'm seriously thinking about planting wolfbane and hoping for a Lon Chaney Jr come-back tour!This is true so based on @ChrisR figure of 1/100@F/8, he would indeed need more exposure thus 1/50@F11
Like most photographs there is no fixed exposure value for the moon, just guidlines to get in the ball park.
It looks like Bri has now seen the light ( of the moon!) and come to realise the Sunny/ looney F/8 or F/11 is close enough so hopefully this saga, not unlike the F4 saga, can be put to rest.
As for me, I'm gunna take up knitting as it's less finger work than all this typing!

One thing I don’t understand is why there are upwards of 80 posts about taking a picture of the moon in the “Nutters with cameras” thread. It’s not like there’s even a shot of Brian trying to take a picture of the moon.
I think Brian should have his own thread, or maybe even his own section.

Snip:
OK, hands up who thinks Brian should be sectioned?
Yep, far too much mooning in this thread.
Not sure that is correct,surely if you want to have a smaller aperture then you need more exposure so 1/60 would become 1/30 would it not.
might possibly be @RaglanSurf
Defo not Nick, he wouldn't need to bend his legs!
Well, it was in post #56, page 2 (just to prove I'm awake).
What an encyclopaedic memory, Stephen! Sorry, just desperate for something to spin this thread back on topic...Well, it was in post #56, page 2 (just to prove I'm awake).

Aha yes, got it now, thanks!Present in body but not in mind?

I have a few more showing people, but I've refrained
Would you like to hear about my new F4
It's quite possible that I speak for everyone:
NO !
OK so i feel suitably guilty at being harsh.
So where was I ?The outside photo was taken by Swanbourne Lake, and the inside one from the cafe in the High Street.
