BEFORE my first moon

#1

Post by Jockinireland »


After posting my first and second moon images with my 8" LX200 and EOS1100D I remembered I actually had a earlier version.

This was taken back in March with my Samsung G7 phone held to the eyepiece of my LX200. To be honest I was astonished by how well it came out - its a phone for goodness sake! But i do think it is interesting just to see how well some of these phones can capture images.

It is a single image, sharpened and adjusted just a little in Photoshop

I missed seeing this Jock.
This is nice.
Cell phones can capture some surprising images of the moon. When seeing is fine the cell phone can shine. 😊
