Good Monday morning Gary. It might be a little late but I bumped mine up to 800 - 1000 ISO. I also put the camera in aperture priority.

I tried several with mine. I even used the flash and that fooled the camera into thinking it could take the picture. So there wasn't any one setting that worked for me. I got some pretty decent pictures, but also a lot of bad ones.

I know it's too late, but my best advice would be to use a tripod. I did.

I read this in preparation, but the clouds kept the moon hidden from my view.

Not sure at all what you are talking about...too technical for me (S).

Wanted to make sure you knew it was me and not Les. He on the other hand probably could give a lecture on it.
