1 frame, no stacking - too lazy. Skywatcher ED100 + GSO ED Barlow, 1/13 sec at ISO80, Pentax K-5.

Thanks Dunk. I cheated and shaded the moon for even detail.

Thanks Brad. I do love my K-5 also. I upgraded from the old K-x and don't regret a second of it. The K-x is for daylight only images now. I wish Pentax would make a similar leap in noise performance with the next model.
