This was one of my first moon photos taken with the RF800 f/11. This wasn't a planned shot but was only possible at the last minute because of the cooperative image stabilization in the lens and the IBIS in the R5. I was aware of the moon in my peripheral vision as I was approaching a local landmark in Anaheim, CA known as Robber's Roost. At the last moment I realized that the moon would rise behind the rocks at the top of the ridge so I pulled over and ran up a steep hillside to see if I could get a good view. As luck would have it a family of hikers were perched on the rocks just as the moon began to rise behind them. I had no time and it would have been difficult to set up a tripod on the slope so I settled on a handheld shutter speed of 1/400 resulting in an image at ISO4K .
