Spectacular COLOR 1080p HD video of the moon - Finally figured how to do it!!!

Great video I enjoyed the nice view.

But sorry to have to burst the bubble on the colour... the colour exists in your camera, not the moon, you will notice you have a vignette of purple in the middle fading to green around the edges. This is due to the cheap lense. The vignette always stays the same position in shot when you pan around the moon.

It is still a great looking shot though the colour does look nice.

So, it is made of cheese.
Great post OP!

Bill, I hope you will find something on the Moon that blows away the myths and crap we have been fed in regards to the real moon...with that kind of equipment and passion.. it's only a matter of time.. Please post it on GLP first.. Thanks..Bill

BTW @ the 11 minute mark.. I think that is some kind of very large tower..

WOW, nice stuff...thanks for your work

Awesome! Why is this the first we are seeing of this?

Zing, that is some awesome video!

What are the specs on your scope?

looks better than the GLP scope.

Someone needs to make sure Astronut see's this.

Need to implement it on GLP scope.

Thanks for this, very cool!



Any idea what the the approximate diameter of the big crater @ 11.00 to the left of the "tower" would be?

Also, how big (and deep) are the largest craters on the moon?

Hope you do more vids

SURE BEATS THE glp TELESCOPE!

mark'd for later viewing

I heard all the craters on the Moon are the same depth.. anyone know?

The moon is an alien base. Blow it up.

I want to get a scope but there so much money. I see yours is around 1500+? Is that really all a 1500 dollar scope does not saying its junk i dont know anything about them but i want to be able to zoom way in and see details... Looks like its not going to happen for under a few 100,000 i take it?

Do you got more pics of vids so i can see how good it does on other things?

Thanks

"what if" this scary looking thing drops into and hits earth suddenly? "what if"? OMFG

thanks for sharing this..nice

Thanks for sharing with the people something NASA has a problem with since these shots are the best I have ever seen. Thanks Zing thanks for nothing NASA.

^^THIS^^
Great stuff Zing..thanks!

well done!

greetings from a sun-quake-volcanotard^^

Considering all the tax dollars invested in NASA, if they cant produce anything better than this, they're taking the piss.
Someone should send them this vid and demand to see something better.

Well I had a great session this evening and examined the Inland Seas on the Moon. The color was again spectacular and I went to all the major seas/mares and zoomed in to show you that there is depth and detail beneath the surface...

I try to get out and video the moon every night the weather permits. I appreciate everyone's comments!!!

Amazing !! You can't beat 'Zeiss' lens's or camera's !! I am now sitting on 500 old cameras my father had collected, and he favored Zeiss. I love looking at your videos... keep them coming !!!

Well done, this is spectacular!
Hopefully we might see some spaceships at some point.
Please keep updating us on anything you capture.

awesome stuff!!

Thank you for sharing..

That is Aristarchus. Had it been in focus and the contrast tweaked this is what you would have seen:

The blue color is similar to the Cerenkov effect which turns atmosphere blue when it comes in contact with radiation.

The diameter of the structure is approximately 29 miles.

Beautifull! Thank you for this.

Thanks for the video. I was about to go out and buy the lenses and the logitech camera, until I realized I also need a very expensive telescope, which I know nothing about.

Great work!

Absolutely fantastic work Zing!!!

You are more then just a Moontard. They are entry level.

Welcome, GLP's Lunar Observation Specialist.

I went back at 22:00 and south and west of Aristarchus Crater it did look like some strange "construction zone" - lots of angled fissures. I also went back and looked in HD at the detail of some of the seas I could see some strange right angled structures beneath the surface and lights blinking far beneath the surface. This really has sparked me and I intend on trying to really look closely at those next session.

Note I will also try to do a good closeup of Aristarchus...

LRO Camera Team Releases High Resolution Global Topographic Map of Moon
11.16.11

The science team that oversees the imaging system on board NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has released the highest resolution near-global topographic map of the moon ever created.

This new topographic map, from Arizona State University in Tempe, shows the surface shape and features over nearly the entire moon with a pixel scale close to 100 meters (328 feet). A single measure of elevation (one pixel) is about the size of two football fields placed side-by-side....
