I've got one like this and i am really upset after seeing this video.

The thing is that its zoom 18x which enables me to take picture of stuff few meters away of me perfectly, but of the MOON, no way.

i have tried many times and it just cant catch the moon.

Plz, plz, can you tell me how did u do this?

what was the setting that enabled u to capture the moon in this brilliant way?

thank u in advance

hi! sorry you're having trouble...i got these photos/video using lots of experimentation the first night i got the camera. the first few shots are still photos taken using a tripod, with the moon low in the sky on a clear night. i used the lowest F stop (F.1.8) and an exposure time of 8-10 seconds.

the video was also taken using a tripod...you can also see how it was out of focus and it came into focus after a few seconds on the video.

hope this helps! good luck!
