Moon shot earlier this week. Hand held(wish I had a tripod set up..)

Thanks for your interesting shot, Winnie.

FWIW, I don't use a tripod for moonshots. I usually just brace my hold over the roof of my car. I also find that when using 'spot metering' in particular with small central AF point, ISO can be kept at around 200 with reasonably fast shutters speeds in return.

I usually drop exposure compensation to taste and brightness of the moon, and use AF-S autofocus and aperture priority with a lens opening around F6.3 to F8. If you've not already done so, I'd suggest giving it a try.

Happy shooting to you.

Cheers...
