Originally posted by JASMAZ77 Puting the dial on TAV is good but no good when your trying to use manual mode focus and get a closer photo of the moon. I need to know the optimal shutter speed, f rating and iso rating for taking the photo.
The optimal shutter speed etc. depnds very much on
the phase of the Moon
the altitude of the Moon
the atmospheric conditions
So, I strongly recommend that you shoot completely Manual. That said, I have tried to sum up some general guidelines for exposure settings here:
Camera Settings for Astrophotography
But please remeber, these are only recommended start-out settings for your own tests with "your own" Moon and sky.
