Here are the settings for the camera: Exposure: 1/30s Number of frames stacked: 400 Gamma: 10 Number of frames per second: 15 Gain: About 400 Mosaic of 3 images Large version: http://forum.hkas.org.hk/attachments/month_0805/20080517_645d88138da015c0011aUHfY7ltuOYEV.jpg Edited by leongdw (05/16/08 09:50 PM) Post Extras:       Mare Nectaris scholastic sledgehammer Reged: 03/09/08 Posts: 949 Loc: Toijala, Finland Re: Clavius Region [Re: leongdw]       #2401555 - 05/17/08 09:22 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Hi - and welcome to the forum! What a presentation you make! Congrats for that - the DMK really delivers in good hands. It is also great that you give the specs for shooting, as many have looked for them even on this forum. That is magnificient Clavius and surroundings! The surface texture of the Clavius crater plateau looks fantastic. In the following site you can find Mardi Clark's excellent reference pics to judge how small craterlets you are able to pick for instance from Clavius: http://cityastronomy.com/crater-sequence.htm Also the presence in you pic is great - and the melting of the Lunar disc into space looks great! Thanks for sharing this with us - please send more as you get them!
