Saw that number on the NASA moon page last week and it flipped me, because if you shoot a single frame at 400mm the moon comes out tiny and flat, so now I stack 40 to 60 shots in AutoStakkert and the crater detail at Tycho finally looks real, but does anyone here still shoot the moon as one frame and like it better?
