Tonight's Half Moon, from ISO 1000 photo taken with Canon EOS 1D Mark III attached to 127mm Maksutov-Cassegrain f/12.1 telescope, with Tv=1/160. This optical configuration is equivalent to a 1997mm telephoto lens. Post-processed in LightZone from camera raw using Zone Mapper and Relight. Some testing work, prior to the full lunar eclipse in a week.

Just what is a "telephone" lens?

Kurt,

It was a typo that I missed. I've just edited the description to make the meaning clear.

Blessings and Light,
Michael
