Test: Photographing the moon

One of the things I've wanted to do was to take a photo of the moon, which I've not had much success of in the past. I tried again with my new camera, testing various settings. This was the best result of the bunch. I've, of course, cropped the picture, as the rest of the canvas in the picture is just black-nothing-ness.

Since I got a decent result, I decided to try again using my Panasonic camera, using basically the same settings. The resultant picture (also cropped) is the one on the right.

The setting that seemed to work well is manual ISO 50, spot metering, with automatic flash.
