Moon Craters with Panasonic Lumix TZ5
These pictures were taken this evening, by myself ,after finding my body clock not in time with the clocks going forward last night! I chose a nice blue camera from the range.
[nggallery id=28]The two full-size clips show:
- the Earthshine quite clearly lighting up the mare on the Moon (the Man in the Moon) in the blue-ish real-colour shot.
- Craters! At the terminator (the join between light and dark) on the under-exposed shot which is blacker, we can quite clearly see large craters!
- On both shots, the terminator clearly has a ragged edge! It’s not sharp – and this is due to the presence of craters and other highland mountain ranges.
For me, this is amazing for a pocket camera. The thing does almost anything, I’ve found, once the correct settings are in. In fact, it does stuff very well just leaving it on auto!
