[QUOTE="Revet, post: 294156, member: 17612"] Last night there was a bright full moon in Cleveland with really cool illuminated clouds around it. I have taken moon shots before but I decided to try out the Looney 11 technique that I read about recently. I was all excited and went outside with my Nikon D3100. On manual settings, I used Iso 200, 1/200 shutter at f/11. I shot the picture zooming in with my 18-300 Tamron lens, probably picked a focal length of 200 mm. Nothing, couldn't even see the moon in the picture. I ended up with some very nice shots but had to use settings of ISO 1600, shutter 1/10th, f/6.5. That is about 9.5 f stops difference!!!!! What is going on with the Looney 11 rule here??? [/QUOTE]
