Default Full Moon Handheld

I finally had a night with a steady atmosphere, so I
tried imaging the full moon handheld at 1000 mm (real focal length):

This was done standing up with no supports and not leaning against anything.
The full resolution image can be seen from the above page.

Quite impressive! You don't mention it but were you using some
form of image stabilisation?

Very impressive. Roger lists an IS lens, but not whether IS was enabled.

Cheers,

Over exposed, lost detail. Just another unremarkable moon shot I'm afraid.
The fact that it is hand-held is completly irrelevant

Sure, you'll prefer this 500mm NOT handheld:

Very nice image. But you'll just make the troll more jealous.

Troll? I think that it would appear that he was quite correct from this
