To take pictures in pitch dark use low ISO (ISO80) and lowest shutter speed.

Try to take the same picture with ISO80 and 15 Sec shutter delay.

BUT remember, if u r going to take picture in ISO80 use a tripod or keep the cam on some surface. Even if the cam shakes for a fraction of second ur picture will come blurred.

i guess longer exposure can ruined the pic...
check exit data of Vimal`s posted image....
Shutter Speed is 1/320 for that shot...

For shooting the moon one doesn't needs a slow shutter as 15secs even at ISO 80. What Rhitwick suggested is partially correct though.

Sujoy I suggest when you release the shutter don't do it manually, use self-timer to prevent the camera shake.

@toofan - I have heard about the masks but will google it as I don't know anything about them.

whoops, that post was meant for sujoyp, he was asking about taking a moon shot with a cam that does not have a manual mode....

@sujoyp: if your camera has a program mode or even a landscape mode that will set the focus to infinity, then use spot metering and cropping to get a good shot....take the shot at the full resolution of the camera so that the crop results are good.

The JPG is compressed to load faster on slower connections. I pulled the slider too far so one can see the artifacts, please ignore them.

@sujoyp : this has been taken from my sony w-150.......it does not have the quality of the high optical zoom cameras but is still worth a shot.

@izziko_rage - The image you posted on previous page is beautifully composed. Only defect I see in it is the tilted horizon.

my cam has a 5x optical zoom....the moon was three quarters full ...that is usually the best time to shoot it...(I think someone else also mentioned this fact...a full moon will show no details ) ...I used irfanview to crop the photo

@cool g5: now that you mention it....it is a bit tilted...will take care next time...thanks
