Here's one from Richard Kilpatrick - his first ever attempt at a Moon pic. Using the Sigma 300-800mm f5.6 EX DG with 2X Sigma converter only, Nikon D3 at ISO 200:

Some post-processing applied to emphasise the features of the Moon.

Hi Sonolta - thanks for the links to the different videos today - awesome stuff :D . I had just finished looking at a review of the Canon 5d MkII on the Camera Labs site and I thought it looked a very nice camera, although the video samples there were nowhere near the quality on the links you've shown. I join you in hoping Sony hurry up with HD video in DSLRs. If I had the cash spare would I go for an A900 or the mkII? Luckily not a problem at the moment :oops: .
