Tell you what, as an experiment you could image the Moon near full when it is near the horizon, then later that night when it high in the sky... see if there is a difference in size.

I can except that but I seem to get more detail in the image posted than from ones with it higher up instead of just the shapes there seems to be a hint of the highs and lows. It looks more like it has been taken through a telescope than just with a camera.

Any idea's on whether $500 is a good deal on the camera I reckon it is a very attractive offer.
