anybody ever take pics of the moon before? Reply #12 – February 19, 2008, 07:27:29 AM Here you go. I took this one at about 10:30 at my in laws a few months ago. Yes, that's the moon behind the trees, and those are stars in the sky. It's a 30 sec. exp., so the clouds have a motion blur.Cougardoc, are you using the Rebel Xt? That's the same one I use (8.1) with the stock 18-55mm EF-S. Quote Selected

Long exposure shots can only be done in manual mode, and you have to play with ISO and EXP settings to get it right, but for day to day pictures I use the Auto setting. The problem is the thing is flash happy in auto mode, so if I'm trying to capture true colour, I use manual.Oh, and a tripod is an awesome thing. Quote Selected
