Re: Lunar eclipse

Once again I'm hankering after a higher res, more 35mm-analogue-like camera, 'cos 4 megapixels, JPG file format and a dithery autofocus is really starting to be frustrating.

Infinity is infinity is infinity (as far as focusing goes) so f8 with 'mountain' option set (as opposed to 'flower') should be pin-sharp, not 'a bit fuzzy'.

Never had trouble taking crisp Moon shots with my old Practica MTL3, 300mm lens + 2x teleconverter - grrrr.

Still, at least I remembered to look with my eyes as well as the camera last night :-)
