My first Moon shots...half an hour ago.
How did I do?

Shot with my 135mm at about f11, ISO 100, 0.6s exposure. Plus 2 of 2x TC

    The moon is hard to get right exposure. I think you got that correct but neither of your shots are in focus. Perhaps it's the 2x TC you are using. They usually don't give the greatest IQ.

    I think you are right...and I was concentrating on exposure, to be honest. I may try again, but the only other long lens I have is the 75-300 standard canon zoom. Might be ok, but not as close as 135mm + 2 lots of 2x TC.

    Cheers
