First (moon) light in new lens


A friend of mine pointed out the unique characteristics of this lens, and first bought a similar one. It is actually old technology, as this lens was made in about 1980, but on the new digital cameras it is effectively an 800mm telescope. His photos were so intriguing that I had to buy one. This is the first light that I got to pass through the lens.

So the moon over St. Cloud, 1/600th of a second at f8.0, hand held, 1:11 AM, July 12.
