If you don’t have a DSLR camera, don’t worry. It’s possible to take a good picture of the Moon through a telescope with just a compact camera or even the camera on your mobile phone. All you need is a telescope and a steady hand to take the shot. Hold the camera up to the telescope eyepiece, zoom in and start snapping. You might find your first attempts are horribly blurred. If you’re using a camera phone there are actually special holders that attach to your telescope that can hold your phone in place while you take the picture. Storage space greater than five megabytes is now common on many phones.
