Keep in mind the moon as the main subject is not a 'night scene', it is a big rock sitting out in the sun, so it needs to be exposed as such. Like Dave says, spot meter. Or a manual exposure guess for a daytime scene. If you can get your shutter speed high enough, you can get a decent shot hand held. But better to keep your iso low, shoot at your sharpest aperture and use a tripod.</blockquote>
