Greetings from Montreal Canada

Hello everyone,

I just got my own K-x a couple of days ago. Upgrading from a six year old Canon Powershot A70. Before that I was using a Pentax K-1000 and had my hands on an MX so I'll have lots of questions for this forum. Two days ago I hooked my K-x to my telescope (f.l. 1500 mm, f/11. and took a few shots of the moon. Here's a mosaic of the two best pictures:



1/160s, iso 200

Could not have been possible with the old K-1000. At least not without a lot of darkroom work.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.

Apparently.

By the way, that's a nicely stitched moon shot
