Tried photographing the moon before looking for tips, using a Sony Nex7 with an old (20 years+) Canon fd300mm f2.8L. Absolutely concur with your advice. I set everything to manual, and guessed settings for first attempts and everything was massively overexposed! With the lens wide open I had to go to shutter speds of over 1/500 th second!
Here is a pic from UK last night. I also tried video, which produced a nice tracking effect – I speeded the playback on YouTube by 2 1/2 times to make it a bit more interesting, and also to fit the soundtrack. Hope you like the results…

I used my Canon 600D with a 55-250mm lens, and your settings (aperture f/11, ISO 100 at 1/125).

I had no idea what I was doing and am really happy with the result!

Thanks so much for posting this :)

I am a newbie to moon photography. I have D7000 with 18-105mm lens. Will this be good enough for photographing the moon clearly.

I’ve taken the occasional full moon photo all my life and unless it was dim and low on the horizon I got the proverbial white blob.

Last Saturday (May 5, 2012) was the super-moon and in preparation I found your tips. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Feel free to take a look: http://bit.ly/IMORfY

Was trying to take pictures and getting seriously overexposed results.

Took your advice and got the following on my first attempt (small changes in photoshop).

Will try to get to some areas with less light pollution for my next attempts.
