Swept the division and finished third. But this is a photo thread. There are plenty of other threads where this has been discussed very thoroughly. Please take your weak sauce smack talk there.

So I'm kicking in Belize last week, drinking a few brews, smoking a Cuban cigar and I see the full moon. Outstanding! I need to get a shot or two of this! I had my Canon Rebel XSi and my EFS 55-250 lens hanging on that bad boy.
I look through the lens and it looks great. I go to shoot the shot and it's a white blob with no detail. What In the hell do I need to do to fix this? My brother who was sitting next to me as I'm Mother fuking the camera, suggested a telephoto lens. He said something about fitting the entire moon into the shot, otherwise, the detail doesn't get picked up in the moon.

It sounds like the exposure on your shots is way high (bright). Shooting stuff like this is tricky because the camera is dealing with the extreme between the crazy darkness of the night and crazy brightness of the moon. Here is what you do. Make sure the camera does spot or partial metering. So instead of looking at the whole photo which has dark and brightness and making sense of it, it will focus on the spot in the center which is only the moon and adjust to that. This video should help. And tell me if that doesnt make sense I can try and explain it better. The degree of difficultly with moon shots is pretty high. |
