I'd like to thank MuttleMctuttle for the help last month with my new camera. I had taken moon shots and was given good advice and some camera settings which I tried this month on the full moon. Hope it has paid off. What do you think?

try a few different shutter speeds along with a few f/ numbers, depends on the night and the lens... yu can get pics with the flash active too..
edit.. the iso makes a diference in noise some times and not so much when you get the exsposure right.. but.. the moons bright, so your not shooting a dark sky is a big hint..

Your moon pic is nice Ghillies :)
Yes, high ISO best avoided, and not necessary for moon shots. If your camera has spot metering use that mode and meter on the moon, not the dark sky.
If you want to include a bit of scenery in your shot but keep detail in the moon, you will need to use a long exposure for the dark land, then combine it with another shot, taken to expose for the moon. Tricky, but worth it :)
