Just remember to turn OFF image stabilization if you are using a tripod!  Otherwise IS can induce vibrations and make the image out of focus.

Also, focus the camera at infinity.  Otherwise, the image won't be crisp.

Finally, the point about what amateur astronomers call *seeing* is important.  Many. Ugh ta conditions in the atmosphere are turbulent and images will be, too.  Photographing over concrete,driveways, or buildings — e.g., where heat is coming off during the winter — will mess up the images, too.
