Hi,

How long did u leave the shutter open?

Base on the info on the photo that he post, it is 1/125s.

Have a nice day.

Hi,

Erm how come the moon is so large when compared to the buildings? Did you like stack photos of different zoom?

Base on his description "5 moon shoots and one wide angle KLCC shoot." and I think he stack the moon shot with a wide angle shot of the KLCC.

Have a nice day.

Now I see the light.

I was wondering how he captured those multiple moons in 1/125 sec. The moon couldn't have possibly moved that fast!

when i was composing my animation, when the moon entered penumbra -> umbra -> penumbra took around 2 hrs + , so i would think it would move that much.

edit: err nvm, I read astrobabe's post wrong :oops:

As what I descripted on first message, I am using multi-exposure function on film SLR camera, NOT digital SLR camera.
The 5 moon shoots and 1 wide angle KLCC shoot are done in a single film. No stacking required.
Sorry to let you miss understood about the exposure I used...it actually is like this:
I use a 300mm lens, set the aperture to f/11. According to my experiences on shooting the moon and the weather condition on that night, I chosen 1/125 sec exposure for each moon shoot. Total are 5 exposure I made on moon with 1/125 sec exposure. Final exposure is 8 secs, wide angle shoot on KLCC.
