I use a remote shutter release, to keep any camera shake from blurring the shot. Also with my Nikon there is an option to do a delayed shutter, which flips the mirror up one second before the shot is taken.
It's a screen shot from my video up about 300ft. I overlaid a Super Moon shot I took with my Nikon D5500 on a tripod with a 200mm lens. Shot at 1/4000 sec at f5.6 ISO 100. It is located correctly where the Super Moon is.
I agree, it's frustrating that everything isn't in place yet, but a least there is a definitive plan to move forward. I have some real estate friends that want my services. Hope I can get this done before August. Fingers crossed.
