Lens recos for EOS 2000D to see the craters on the moon

[Timmysherman6]

I was wondering if somebody can tell me what kind of lens to buy that so powerful where I can see craters on the moon

“Death Star approaching!”

Fantastic shot!

Haha!  Thank you!

You're right,that looks cool

Thanks, Ron!  I've always had better luck mounting various telescopes directly to cameras over the years.  Long lenses are nice, but a quality built telescope often has superior optics.

Since it came on the market my recommendation in the super zoom range is the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2. It's a fantastic lens especially for the bucks. Another thing to remember it may be night time where you are but it is always daylight on the Moon. Use the Looney 11 Rule. Get DPP4 form Canon and shoot raw never jpg.

A good tripod is required.

You can get a half decent shot with a lens as short as 200mm but as you can see,even at 100% pixel view it's kinda small onscreen.
Other's suggestions of 600mm sounds good.
If you want to blow your mind, borrow a good telescope.When only 1/4 of the moon can fit onscreen it looks spectacular!
