Get ready to shoot the Super moon on Tuesday September the 9th.
Here are some tips:
Work at long focal lengths, 300 , if possible.
Put your camera on a tripod, use timer or a release.
Switch off IS or VR.
Use Manual Exposure mode.
Aperture, between f9 to f11.
Lower your ISO to 100.
Try to reach a speed fast enough (around 1/400) to start seeing the moon's actual details. If you are getting a white ball, your speed is not fast enough.
Shoot some shots to gauge your setting, mostly the speed.
Adjust your speed accordingly, till you see actual texture on the moon.
Try to tell a story, like shooting through a tree, branches, or elements that could give your a reference frame to your story.
If there is haze, do not get frustrated, it comes with the territory.
Best of luck and post on Flickr.com.
