Shooting the Moon
Shooting the moon is a really great way for the beginning photographer to practice exposure and really gain a full understanding of how the exposure triangle (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) all works together. So, pull out your DSLR tonight and follow this quick, easy-to-understand guide to get an amazing moon photograph regardless of your camera make/model or the lens you have available! When you're thinking about photographing the moon, the first things you should be concerned with are the same as when you are shooting any other subject — the sharpness of the moon (your subject) in your final image, and properly exposing the moon (your subject) so that it doesn't just look like a giant white ball. If you take a test picture with your camera in auto mode you'll see what I mean — because auto mode is exposing for the entire scene you're photographing, the moon will be a bright white ball in the resulting image. You have to use manual mode to photograph the moon and tell your camera how to properly expose for its light so you can see all the amazing detail; this is the power of manual mode!

I, like many users, got tired of the pics from the inbuilt phone cameras and bought one after watching the absolutely wonderful and detailed pictures uploaded by my photographer friends. Here is my experience with it for the past 30 days and whether you should buy one:
Abdullah MasoodPublished 6 years ago in Photography Best Mirrorless Cameras for Professionals
For a long time, DSLR cameras were the standard for serious photographers. However, the digital single lens reflex added unwanted weight to the camera, while also making it overly mechanical and noisy. The mirrorless camera is a simpler, more streamlined type of camera, because the digital viewfinder makes it less clunky and every bit as reliable.
