A sunrise digital image of a Venus lunar was taken this morning with a 10 MP DSLR and 50 mm prime lens set to f8, ISO 200, 1/200 sec, infinite focus. Image quality is satisfactory and the -0.8' lunar error is within the 2 pixel precision range of the camera. I would feel comfortable using images such as this to perform lens calibrations.
