   and an amazing one from Reddit: "I took nearly 50,000 images of the night sky to make an 81 Megapixel image of Tuesday’s moon."

   1) IS nocs > cool!
   2) was there any byline avail on the reddit composite image? would love to know who/how…
   3) u owe yourself an upgrade to the Canon 100-400 4-5.6 IS II…it makes possible telescopic handhelds at .25sec and the optical quality is pretty spectacular for the price. Plus, no more trombone-zoom as in the old 100-400.
   4) been playing with the new Nikon z7…it is very possibly as big a jump as the 5dII was…native lenses are sharp as tacks and dynamic range + ~50mp = whole new level of precision/richness in stills and full-frame 4k video… Still no native Zeiss glass for it > dream for walk-around would be a good small Zeiss Batis 25mm 2.0 comparable (as is available for Sony mirrorless)…
