What settings do I use to get the best picture at nite I want to get some of the ful moon coming up I have the LG g 7 Q

Hi Sakhile,

This is a matter of preference and can differ from country/culture to country.

Traditionally (in English speaking countries), et al., the New Moon is exactly one half of the Lunar Cycle. That is to say around 14(+) days.

Normally one talks about the percentage of illumination, waxing (as the light "grows" across the face of the Moon, towards the Full Moon) or waning (as the light recedes in the direction of the New Moon).

It is praxis that the Moon's Cycle is divided into 4 phases of around 7 days each. Ergo: 7 days Waxing, 7 days Waning.

The number of days counted from the New Moon is called "The Moon's Age" and is counted upwards, "as an age".

The Moon and it's orbit is an entire science but I hope I have answered your question.

Happy Moon gazing!

hmm normally these settings are found in the picture settings of the set top box or just a setting in the tv's picture settings now there might be an option to say fill screen that may work best for some or leave the tv in 16:9 some broadcasts may only be in 4:3 at times this is normal broadcasting and not much can be done unless the setting on the picture option is set to fill screen

Without knowing the make and model of your camera I can't give you a definitive answer, but with most cameras you'll want to set it to manual and pretend you're shooting landscapes under a midday sun.

Camera exposure meters are designed to render the entire scene an average gray. Since most of your picture will likely be a dark sky, the camera will try to expose long enough to bring up the sky to an average gray, making the moon into a featureless white blob. Since you probably want to see the moon and don't care if the sky goes black, you want to expose for the moon.

The moon is just a big rock under a bright sun. There is an old rule for taking pictures under a bright sun called the "Sunny-16 Rule." This rule basically states that the proper exposure under this condition is an aperture of f/16 with a shutter speed of 1/ISO. So, if your camera is set to ISO of 200 then you set the aperture to f/16 and the shutter speed to 1/200 seconds, or any equivalent exposure such as f/11 and 1/400.

Digital cameras make this easier, since you can see the picture and adjust the exposure if it didn't come out right. Take a picture, zoom in on the moon, and see if you can see any details. Use the histogram if available. If the peak is at the right edge of the histogram then you're overexposing---reduce the exposure. You want the peak near the right edge but not touching it.

All this depends on the make and model of your camera. Many point&shoot cameras don't have a manual setting. In that case you're pretty much out of luck and you won't get a good picture of the moon.

Hi. I would recommend first you use a tripod or some stable support, second the best settings would be Aperture priority and use something in the region of f56-f8 or Manual and set f5.6-f8 and use the exposure indicator to adjust the shutter speed, use the spot meter function on the camera if you have it and vary the exposure by shooting at the recommended exposure and also by shooting overexposed and underexposed. Trial and error is really the only way to go.Set the ISO to 100 or 200 to get the best resolution as you will probably have to zoom it up to 200% on your computer screen to have a good image.

Not sure what type or model of camera you have. But most camera's have a Mode dial. The best thing to do is to turn that dial to the little green camera logo. That is the automatic mode. If you have chosen the moon and star, you only can make pictures in bad light situations.

You're going to face two separate problems here.

One, the moon occupies a rather small portion of the night sky. Even fully zoomed in, the moon is going to be not much more than a bright spot in the sky.

Two, the camera is designed to assume that almost every scene is an average brightness. Given how much of the scene is a black sky, the camera will attempt to render the sky as average (what photographers call a "medium gray"). This will result in a picture with a gray sky and a featureless white blob for the moon.

If you think about it, the full moon is nothing more than a really big rock under a midday sun. Thus what you want is the same exposure as when taking a picture on a clear sunny day. Unfortunately the camera is going to be fooled by all that dark sky and try to compensate for it. What you really need is to be able to bypass the camera's light meter and set the proper exposure yourself. The C195, unlike more sophisticated cameras, doesn't allow you to do so. Sorry, but that's just the way it is.

Assuming you mean pictures of the moon itself and not a night shot with the moon in it, set your camera to the manual exposure mode and ignore the light meter.

There's an old rule-of-thumb called the "Sunny Sixteen Rule." This states that the proper exposure under a midday sun is an aperture of f/16 and a shutter speed of 1 over the ISO. For example with an ISO 200 film or a digital sensor set at ISO 200 the proper exposure is f/16 and 1/200 second.

What does this have to do with night shots of the moon? Well, the moon is simply a large piece of rock under a cloudless midday sun. Thus the Sunny Sixteen Rule gives you a starting point for the exposure. You can then refine it by reviewing the picture on the LCD and looking at the histogram. The sky will go completely black and you won't see any stars, but you should be able to see at least some of the features of the lunar landscape.

HI
you need to download LG nite PC suit.. which is compatible with your operating system,
you can download it with any LG mobile site..

or

if you have CD which is coming with your mobile than install that cd on your system...


if you find this is helpful for you so please rate me this will encourage me todo more free work..

Take you camera off the automatic exposure setting. Left to itself, the camera will try to make the black sky a middle gray. You want to treat the moon as a landscape under noon sun. If you think about it, that's all it is. The moon is simply a large rock or mountain, lit by the same sun you get at noon. This is where the "Sunny-16" rule comes in. The proper exposure for a full moon is an aperture of f/16 and a shutter speed of 1/ISO. For example, if your ISO is set for 200, the shutter speed should be about 1/200 second. Any equivalent exposure will work as well, for example f/11 at 1/400. You can then review the picture on your display and adjust accordingly. The sky will go pure black, but that's okay. You're not taking a picture of the sky, but of the moon.

shutter speed 50 to 80 ISO at 64 get your apature as small as it will go lagest f number set your focus to single point and single focus if you feel comfortable useing manual focus it is better but my manual focus stopped working here is the link to one of my moon shots on flickr
