[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 232725, member: 11881"] Tripod mount ALL adjustments on the tripod are locked down tight Remove any filters such as UV - can cause reflections Find out the sharpest aperture for the lens you're using I have always have very good success with just an auto focus through the viewfinder. Set the focus to manual so it stays put VR off Set the camera to quiet mode If you have a remote set it to go camera up on the first click and then on the second click of the remote to take the picture. If don't have a remote put the camera to live view and delayed shutter release to take the picture. Keep in mind that atmosphere can play a huge role in the sharpness of the image. I also prefer to slightly underexpose to not wash out shadows - loss of shadows and you lose detail. Full moons will give you the least amount of shadows/details. [/QUOTE]
