I decided to try photographing the moon through my telescope the other night and found it’s harder than you might think. I still don’t think I have gotten all the camera shake out of it, but it’s much better than my first attempts. Using a Meade telescope with a DSLR camera adapter on the back I was able to hook up my Canon 20D to the telescope and photograph this image of the moon. I shot the image at ISO 400 and set the shutter to 125/s. I also set the mirror to the locked up position to remove as much camera shake as possible. The results can be seen in the included image. With more practice I’m sure I can get even better images.
