You can't see smith tower from that vantage point any more due to new construction. |

I've wanted a DSLR for some time now and my wife gifted me a Nikon D3300 for Christmas. My previous experience as a photographer is taking pics with my iPhone.
 Anyway, here's one I took today that I really like:  iPhone pic:   |

It's all about getting the sharpest aperture for your lens and doing everything you can to minimize camera shake. Moon sharpness is a function of aperture and motionless camera, in my experience. Shoot in RAW, play around with sharpness and levels. You can fix/enhance a lot in post if you start with good base data. See the last post here for a moderatly good example |

See the last post here for a moderatly good example thanks for the tips Fred, I am just starting out with straight camera/lens astrophotography. Until now, all my shots were through an 8" SCT with tracking and Registax, Autostakkert, PS CC etc. I wanted to get some wide field so I bought a new DSLR & decent lens. Here is some of my previous work...

Love that Jupiter/moon shot. I'm at my limit with the 600, so unless I want to get into telescopes the rest of the universe is outside my reach. |

I think the top one would benefit from some cropping to place the eyes to follow the rule of thirds. Then it would make a great computer wallpaper or a large print to hang. |

The WiFi feature on this camera was deliberately limited to connecting through smart phones & printers only. It will not connect to a PC/laptop. They did that purposely to push you up to the 70D model at twice the price. I only found out after I bought it. To use your computer to shoot photos, you still need the USB cable. If you don't care about that, it is an awesome camera. |
