[QUOTE="Mike150, post: 68395, member: 2287"] I agree with Pedroj. Push up the shutter speed. Also, consider decreasing your aperture opening. Try going to F8 or maybe F11. The Moon is "Reflected Sunlight". Experiment with different F settings and speeds. it's digital so you can throw out the bad ones. I'd suggest manually focusing also. Not having a tripod stinks for this kind of shot, but try improvising. I would put a pillow on a table outside. Prop the camera on the pillow and use live view to frame and focus your shot. Then use the Timer so you can press the shutter and let the camera take the picture while no one is touching it. Asyou would with a tripod, turn off VR when shooting this way. [/QUOTE]
