Cool shot, reyalp.

and hand held!

It can. In a good overhead pass, ISS is bright enough that you can use quite fast shutter speeds, like 1/300th at ISO 80, and angular size is comparable to Saturn or Jupiter. Images below were taken with sx710, hand held. Not much to look at, but definitely some real shape visible. I found framing and tracking quite challenging. I had best results using Tv mode, dialing down the shutter speed to brighten the display to frame it and then dialing it up to shoot

ISS, SX710 hand held, 1/320th ISO80. Two frames
