Camera parameters for shooting the moon

Camera parameters for shooting the moon are small aperture (F8-F 16) and low ISO.

When shooting the moon, it is usually in a dark environment, and the moon is very bright. In order to avoid overexposure, set the camera to full manual mode when shooting the moon, and don't adjust the shutter speed too slowly.

It is suggested to use small aperture (F8-F 16), low ISO and spot photometry to measure the bright part of the moon, and adjust the EV value at the same time. When shooting the moon, it is usually necessary to reduce the EV, which should generally be 1 or 2 (depending on the shooting situation).

In order to get high-quality photos, otherwise the photos are prone to noise. It is suggested to refer to the aperture F/8, shutter1125 and ISO 100, which need to be adjusted according to the actual situation.

Shooting a good photographic work requires mastering the following skills:

1, using a tripod

The camera must be mounted on a tripod to prevent the camera from shaking when shooting. Try to keep the camera close to the subject, and be careful not to introduce unnecessary shadows.

2. Focus orbit

Although it is not necessary for shooting, the focus rail is a good auxiliary device, which can help to take good close-ups. The focal track can make the camera move along the X-axis and Y-axis in very small increments, and can accurately control the camera position and the depth of field of the picture. It is very troublesome to move the triangular bracket to the ideal position.

3. Use cable to release

Even if the camera is mounted on a tripod, it may still shake if you are not careful when pressing the shutter. Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, it is recommended to use cable release.
