Found this photo on the net and I thought I would share it. I wonder what camera and lens they used?

I suspect that the photo is photoshoped. If the moon would show up that big, so would the plane. I'll bet that the plane was added later.

Nice daytime moon shot.

My prediction is this:

A focal length of about 600mm will get the moon looking this big.
The shot is 4:3 formatted, and the quality and resolved detail is high enough that I don't think it's from a point and shoot camera, or a "superzoom" consumer point and shoot. It's from a DSLR.
A 300mm lens is equivalent to a 600mm focal length on a 4/3 sensor, so if it's uncropped, I think it was shot with an Olympus 4/3 DSLR such as an E620 or E5, with a Zuiko 70-300 lens.

The jet could have been photoshoped in, but I don't think it was. If the jet was far away enough, it will have this perspective. The jet would have UV haze at this distance, but photoshop contrast adjustments would be able to correct it to what you see here.

Very cool, the foreshortening effect was probably caused by a long telephoto leans , im thinking 300mm or longer on the lens. Maybe 400mm.
