I use the Tv (Shutter priority) mode. (spin the mode knob)...
I select the shutter speed between 1/80 and 1/200 with ISO selected at 100 or 200. Manual focus set to infiinity, and with Image Stabilizer Off (using a tripod)

Taking a photo of the moon is the same as taking a photo of any sunlit object. You won't need a slow shutter speed. You might have to manual focus, though, and use a tripod to avoid camera shake with the lens at its most telephoto setting. Depending on how full the moon is, start with 1/125, bracket your exposure, and go faster from there.

Combine the answers above and you are set. If you want to go "full manual," which is probably not necessary with your camera, use the same "sunny sixteen" rule as you would use for taking a picture of the sun. Set the lens at f/16 and set the shutter speed at the inverse of the ISO. This works for film or digital cameras. For example, at ISO 200, shoot at f/16 at 1/200.

I tend to favor the MOUNTAIN SCENE. IT forces the lens to focus on Infinity. Otherwise the poor camera will send out a US or IR signal trying to focus on the moon.
So go to the picture of the mountain.
Then you may have to tinker with the EV settings to work with the exposure.
