Tried to get shot of full moon with t5, Av mode 18f, 200 iso, shade wb, gave me 30 sec exposure but the brightness just gave a glow and not the sharpness of the moon landscape, canon efs 50-250 lens, Tree on left side in foreground, shows underexposure in histogram,"blinky" on moon. tried various exp comp settings. moon had nice glow but would like to get rid of glow "blob" effect and get the sharpness instead. Thank you for helping this novice.
Try manual exposure next time. A 30 sec. exposure is way too long. you should be up around 1/250 at ISO 200. Bracket -2 to +2 for starters. You'll loose the shadow detail (the tree) unfortunately. One option is to do two separate exposures and "Photoshop" them together using layers. I use Photoshop Elements myself.
