Full Moon Revisted

With this camera and lens combination, you MUST use manual focus to get a sharp image and you MUST get the moon centered well enough to use two steps of "zoom" on the manual focus display.

It will look fine in the wide view, but blurry when you go narrower.

Tonight was a roaring success!

Canon EOS M50 EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II at 250mm, f/5.6, 1/320", ISO 100
Same image cropped.

For the moon, I think smallest ISO, smallest f/ number, play with the shutter until you see what you want on the screen.

I am pleased with this, way more pleased than yesterday's effort.
