[QUOTE="fender66, post: 172761, member: 2990"] Guys.....IF...I may offer some advice on the "fast lens" topic....Faster lenses for shooting the moon is not necessary. Remember....this thing, (the moon) is 238,857 miles away. You are focusing at infinity therefore, you don't need to worry about depth of field. The "only" reason you might not open your lens to it's largest/widest aperture (assuming you need more light) is to stay in the "sweet spot" of your lens sharpness. (most lenses are sharper in their "mid aperture" settings). Other than that....great shots. The clouds completely hid the moon from me all night long. [/QUOTE]
