Hi I am very happy with the 10x zoom of the Z2. Take a look at this picture of the moon I took a couple of hours ago.
It is a result of 15 pictures stacked with AsrtoStack. |

AstroStack (http://www.astrostack.com/) is a piece of software that automatically stacks and averages several pictures of the same subject, thus increasing greatly the signal/noise ratio.

hello here one of the single shots. It has some details but the stacked one is far better.
for the camera settings see the exif info. nothing particular except for manual exposure: f8 to get maximum sharpness and a correct shutter time to catch the most of the details |

to see the exif just save the image to your pc (right mouse button on the image then choose save picture as...) and open with an editor say dimage viewer.
when you shoot remember to use self timer to avoid skaking the camera when you press the shutter button. this is very important. |

I just read the exif info and got an idea. How about setting the WB to "Sunlight" instead of "Auto" to get some natural colors? After all, the reflected lightfrom the moon is sunlight you know... ;-)
