Thank you.

He used a 400mm lens.

Exposure correct however the shot is out of focus. This may be caused by atmospheric conditions, camera shake or shutter shake. With a shot this small it's nearly impossible to say.

Hi KPYang

My focal length is 400mm. It's still not long enough, as the moon still only takes up like 5% of my sensor. This is pretty heavily cropped.

I think some Csers have taken shots of the moon with their 300. But anything less will be difficult.

Hi,

Can I know which lens you used to take this shot?

I'm sourcing for a lens that can take the kind of picture quality above.

Thanks.
