[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 591157, member: 16749"] [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Looney_11_rule]Looney 11 Rule[/url] for exposure—where X is your ISO, use a shutter speed of 1/X of a second at ƒ/11. Here, I used my ancient Vivitar 85-205mm ƒ/3.8 lens on my D3200. Because this lens has distortion and aberrations that get worse, the wider the aperture, I stopped it all the way down to ƒ/22 (two stops below ƒ/11) and set the shutter two stops slower than as well, using 1/25 of a second at ISO 100. This image was made by stacking five shots, I think, all taken on a tripod, with the settings that I just gave. With my lens zoomed to 205mm, the SuperMoon ended up having a diameter of about 450 pixels, on my 6016×4000-pixel DX sensor; up slightly from a diameter of about 425 pixels when I took a similar shot of the moon a few years ago.
