I dont really get the "how to". an exposure of 1/400 sec at f16 will give you a pure black image >.<

Have you shot the moon before? You need those sort of settings for it. You're not photographing stars :\

I didn't think I needed that high of an F stop, but I don't even remember :P I read about how to shoot the moon before but that was a few years ago.
