I learned through trial and error and eventually found my way to the setting "program" (or manual, on some cameras). Here goes...<br />You should shoot in program, if you don't already. It's also helpful to turn up your ISO to 6400 or 3200 (or 1600) for faster shutter speed. It makes the phot grainier in daylight, but at night it doesn't matter, your picture will be grainy because of darkness anyway. When in program, try turning your exposure down or up a few stops. Experiment! (Look in your manual or online for a manual on how to adjust F-stops- every camera is VERY different). Zoom in as far as you can, while zooming, keep the camera focused on the moon. (Don't let it too far out of the lens vision). If you don't have program, try landscape or the infinity setting. Manual focus is a good setting too.<br />Also, have someone help you hold the camera, or put it on a tripod, car, someone's head (l.o.l.), etc. Hope that helps! (and makes sense) Other than that, I'm still learning myself! :-)<br />I've been memorizing Psalm 119, too!Laurahttp://whattheeyehasseen.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
