Playing around with a decent moon. Some good takeaways learning the ropes with this camera. The big one is sending the request to the Day/Night switcher to make sure it is in 'day' mode. Electronic image stabilization (EIS) was another big one to mess with (clouds, even the slightest screw up auto focus, set it and be done). Several other smaller things that eventually made it look pretty good (I'm initially playing around in this video) and consistent in the end. These cameras are very customizable and controllable. I'm going to use some data API's, OpenWeatherMap (old DarkSky API, bought by AAPL) for cloud cover and another undecided one that I have never used before to track the azimuth and elevation by location.
