That's very nice! I had half a mind of going out tonight and getting a shot of the moon but where I would have to go, there are police officers and state troopers investigating a high speed chase that went on tonight and I dont want to draw attention taking photos with my setup... lol they may come over and I just dont want to deal with them. Maybe tomorrow night I will try and get some shots of the moon.

Nice job! I came up with 200*3.4(total conversion)=680, 680*1.6 crop=1088mm! Now that is some zoom. What was the f/ stop at?
