Hi all,

I am desperately trying to get a moon shot. It's a clear night, but cannot get a crisp image. I am using an EOS10D with 300mm lens.

I am shooting in manual mode. Tried all sorts of exposures and apertures to be honest. I found an exposure of 350 with an aperture of 8.5 and ISO400 got the "best" result (more by luck than judgment). But still no crisp shots, I am using a tripod.

Any tips for a beginner?
