That picture of the moon really captures the streaks made by the Tycho impact.

I took this last night wiv my new camera like... only cost £260... ::)



:thumbsup:   Great detail.

Some people get sniffy over so called 'bridge' cameras.  They don't know what they're missing.

I'm very impressed!  ;D

Still learning the many, many features of the thing...

This is tonight's effort using the digital zoom...



But the 24-600mm lens on its own is amazing!




:thumbsup:

A Leica lens is always a good sign

I went for the Canon SX50 and I can't do that justice, it spend a lot of time in Auto mode  redface: but I love that mahoosive optical zoom.  But now there's an SX60. that's got WiFi and stuff

Well, whatever, nevermind

It's the bright crater at the lower left quadrant. Also gave us the name of the monolith in 2001 A Space Odyssey ~ TMA 1 (Tycho Magnetic Anomaly)

I use a few different cameras and am more comfortable with the bridge cameras. Steve, the SX50 is a great camera, I know a few people with them  :thumbsup:

Barman, you asked on faceache recently which camera I'd been using for some shots and your post here reminded me I never got back to you. It was the Nikon P900, gives an awesome 83x optical zoom. This one was taken hand-held on 02.07.15 :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
