Various duration full moon exposures at ISO 200

I created this sample platter of moon images from the full moon on Tuesday, November 27, 2012 at 10:27pm when the moon was 99.8% illuminated. You should probably try this exercise with your own equipment to find a sweet spot combination of ISO and exposure time. I think my sweet spot is right around 1/1000 sec exposure and ISO 200 keeps the noise down. Nice.
