XF 10-24 at 24mm. F4, 50 secs, ISO 1600. Still needed considerable brightening when processing. It was about a quarter moon which seems to give an impression of a full moon when trying to get both the moonlight and stars looking realistic - I really don't like shots which make moonlight look bright as day and stars in a blue sky! My first proper attempt at this sort of thing, so could probably be much improved on.

The green tinge in the sky was not apparent until I uploaded the photo to UKC!

Interesting, useful to know, looks like you got a pretty good result to me. Not something I have tried but I might give it a go.

Tripod?

A tiny mini tripod light enough to travel with. It meant the camera was a bit close to the ground though.

Oops. It was at 10mm, not 24mm.

Really good.

Very, very nice, like this loads.

First attempt seems to have been successful I'd say. Have a 5.

Shutter type makes a difference, so a Compur shutter shouldn't deform the moon. However most SLR's have a horizontal travel blind.
