question... kim's crescent moon picture, did you use a telescope to take this pic?
Hi Sorrowclouds, I think she just has a really kick ass camera! But I'll let her know you've a question for her in case she doesn't see this. She's GOOD huh? *wink*
I love shots like that - I just use a nice telephoto zoom and it gets in nice and tight like that.
I've got a hard drive full of star wheels and moon shots. LOL Never guess I was an amateur astronomer,hunh? Can't wait to dig out of my financial pit so I can get a nice 10" scope and a mount for my Nikon on it! Oh yeah!!
*moons the other contestants* How's THAT for a moon?! Hunh! YAAAA! Take a shot of THAT one!! YAAAA!!!! *wiggling hips*
Orion
Hi Sorrowclouds...no telescope... that shot was taken with my Panasonic Lumix FZ18 mounted on my tripod.
**puts on sunglasses to cut the glare from O's white backside**
That is a kick*ss shot Kim! You're pictures just keep getting better and better!
*laughs* Thanks Trace...:-D :-P
Kim, do you have a tracker on your tripod, or did you just get the settings perfect? That sucker is CRISP...
Orion
OMG, Orion pass me some eye bleach would ya? LOL
Tracey ~ Thanks, my dear! I'm hoping to get more shots like that with fall approaching!
Orion ~ LOL...no tracker...I guess I just got lucky with that shot!
Humph. Evidence would seem to indicate that it was skill, not luck.
What settings did you use for that one?
Orion
that is a really good picture! and a cool camera! 18x optical zoom, that's awesome!
Orion ~ You expect me to remember that? LOL! I'm pretty sure I used manual setting on that camera... but I don't remember anything else about that shot!
Sorrowclouds ~ The FZ18 is one hell of a good camera... I love it! I now have added the Nikon D40x and D80 to my stable, and the Panny TZ5 more recently to replace my TZ1.
Nice! I have a Canon XTI and a Fuji Finepix E550. I would like to get one of those FX18's... have to save up some money :)
oops, I mean FZ18
I've had 4 Panasonic Lumix cameras now...the FX8, the TZ1, FZ18 and my latest is the TZ5. I sold the FX8 and the TZ1, so now I have just the FZ18 and the TZ5. I'm really surprised that the FZ18 is still holding at $350 to $399. I would have thought they would be lower than that by now. I hope you're able to find one soon... it is so lightweight, but still takes awesome shots!
