Under camera settings i have these options:

Flash: on/off/auto

Shooting mode: Single shot/smile shot/beauty/panorama/action shot/cartoon

Scene mode: SCN none/portrait/landscape/night/sports/party+indoor

Exposure value Adj from -2 to +2

I think these are all the setting's, not sure if there is an advanced menu?

Has an 8mp lens, any help with these setting's would be awesome! Keep in mind i need to be in the dark to capture the image, pretty sure any light will wash out what i'm trying to capture. I understand i may not be able to accomplish what i want with this camera but if i can get the setting's geared more to what i need i can at least try

Scene mode to night and try lowering Exposure to two... I think only those two settings will help you, do you have a picture of any of your attempts because it would be easier to help you if you did.

I would like to join the TPU Photo Club. My wife and I have been taking photo classes and love it, always had a great interest in photography but when you can apply techniques your photos come alive.

Current equipment:
Cameras: Canon 20d, Canon 40d
Lenses: All Canon EFS 17-85mm, EFS 18-55mm, 50mm fixed f1.8, EF 75-300mm

Best picture... umm... I am not sure yet... I am building an album I will share with you all...

Early on before the photo class, this may be my favorite...
Minus the dirty spot on the sensor.

Lots of auroral activity this year -contrast/brightness were tweaked a little.

Question for Garyinhere: What settings did you use for the moon picture?

You almost take it like a daylight action shot. Settings: f/11 1/500sec, Iso 1600
The moon make a ton more light than people think so you really have to use a faster shutter speed and close down the f stop to get depth of field
