Well I finally have a decent image of the moon. My new Pentax K200D so far has proven itself very handy and I'm very impressed with it (especially considering the fact that I've only really just picked it up and fiddled so far... no in depth learning of the abilities).

I bought a remote but the infrared sort is evidently not that useful... as it doesn't allow me to keep the shutter open in bulb mode... might have to look at getting a remote with wire.

Has anyone else had any experience with this camera?

Nice image, quite sharp and only a little bit of false colour (CA).

What lens did you use?

The lens was Sigma, 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro... part of the kit the camera came with :)

Oh and I forgot to mention it was taken at 100 ISO... I can check the other details if anyone is interested... I'm still getting used to these RAW files etc. :)
