To determine what the size of the moon will be on your frame take the focal
length of the lens you plan on using and divide it by 100. So a 100mm lens will
make a moon image be about 1mm in size on the film. A 1000mm focal length lens
will produce and iamge of the moon that is approximately equal to 1/2 the
height of a 35mm frame.
