Lunar eclipse tonight. Dunno if I can take pics of it since it's due in a few hours over here and the longest lens I have is 300mm but in case any of you are interested

Are you kidding me? I've got a 35-80 mm lens and I'm still going to take a shot( no pun intended).

The only problem is that I've only got ISO 400 and a few shots of 200. I'm going to go out and buy some 200 only because it's too late to go to any stores that sell 100, unless someone knows of a good place in the Bay Area of California.

God I wish I would have been smart enough to hit up /p/ for advice before I went out. I didn't think to set my iso low, I just matched it to the fancy picture on the display screen.

I was taking pictures with a D40x 55x200mm lense and usually on M or S, some use of Auto and Auto(no flash). I don't believe my iso ever was set below 600. I found my speed sweet spot at 8 near the eclipse's full point and I think I used 5.6F.

What could I have done better?
