Thanks for all the thanks, folks ! As for the wallpaper idea, considering the results I'm keen on making a proper photo-setup for this telescope+N900 combo, so I could use stacking and timed exposures... That would produce images of sufficient resolution to use them as wallpapers.

PS. Hey, who voted this thread with one-star ? I know the title is a bit misleading but the contents can't be THAT bad, right ?

Great pics! Now you got me wanting for an ED-80 telescope. Never seen the moon this close except for those original NASA images.

Skywatcher ED80 (also known as Skywatcher Pro Series 80/600), it's a small telescope, but gives a very good image for a price less than the N900's

I used the afocal technique (=just holding the device against an eyepiece).

The first image is shot with a TAL plossl 25mm eyepiece, the second with a TAL plossl 10mm + 2x (crappy) barlow.

N900 settings, as mentioned, were, ISO 100, exposure -2, no flash, macro mode (the shutter speed was 1/150 and 1/200, but those were set automatically, I looked them up from the exif tag).
