the T90 says f8 @ 1/15 with 2Xs converter and 200 iso.... .
Allowing for the converter, that sounds to me like the exposure will be in the ballpark [emoji106][emoji6]
Ah, but there’s a difference, the weirdness of bright stars in a daylight sky.Also, you don't really want to give enough exposure to make the scene look like daylight (you might as well do it during the day) so give enough exposure to make it look like night.
Steve.
The moon itself generally looks better not full, you can actually see sunlight striking higher areas.

Wait for a day with a clear sky when the moon's visible and you should be able to get a usable shot with anything that has a long enough lens. This was taken with a Sony HX90...Well all I was trying to achieve was to see some detail on the moon and all I'm getting is smudges of darkness and light.
Neither of these shots reach the standards an astronomer would require.
Just when you thought you might have had the exposure thing sorted
A digi camera mount breaker three 2Xs converters with 300mm lens...h'mm image is a bit dark but well see what sort of shots it takes of the moon and elsewhere.

P.S. Surely with 3 two times converters, the combined focal length is 2x2x2x300 = 2400mm not 1800mm?
