There's nothing like attending an opera live but I've really been enjoying the Met's "Live in HD" presentations. The camera work is usually very effective and admission is about $27.
I've seen the Met's production of TURANDOT about a dozen times in-house from different vantage points and never saw the rising of the.moon in, Act One. Last week I attended the HD presentation and finally caught that magical moment.
(I have to add that our local cinema makes these events special--with a bouquet of fresh flowers on the table where we pick up the cast list and a special menu of soups and sandwiches which are ordered before the opera starts and served on bistro tables in the corridor during the first intermission)
