Well, I've got a digital Kodak C813 Point 'n' shoot. Ain't much but it's a camera. I don't know beans about the settings.
I'm interested in all I can find, specifically, how to 'shoot the moon'. I've tried but all I get is a blob.
I shall poke around in the forums and read what I can find.
Some personal tidbits - I'm - an old hippy - a Army vet - a cat person - a self-taught guitar player - I live in Madison, In. - currently unemployed. I like home cooking, being lazy, reading any and everything (except 'Bodice ripper' type novels). I'm more at home overhauling a greasy old engine than go out on the town and I've been know to leave the toilet seat up. I was raised half a townie and half a plowboy.

Howdy,
Remember the moon has lots of light.
Try a setting of ISO 200
Exposure 1/60 th of a sec
Change ISO up or down until you see detail.
I think you are over exposing to get a blob.

You live here, too? A Hilltopper or downtown?
I can see the Courthouse from my back yard.
Oh, I just bought a Chinon CP-7m 35mm film camera cheap.
It works pretty good but if you leave the batteries in overnight the go dead. The users manual is in four different languages an 85 pages long. A complicated toy.
