nice work Sandra,

the first moon shot looks to be in focus (right hand side is sharp) but perhaps was affected on the left by atmospheric turbulence. The seeing really makes the planets clear or not! and focus is difficult when they are jumping around the place!

With your canon really lower the iso down for the moon to 100 or 200 and reduce the exposure time to well under half a second. Jupiter may need something around iso 800-1600 and longer exposure - use live view and have a play with the settings. However most people use video capture for the planets as the seeing has it blur in and out of sharpness. then use a program like registax 6 to break down the frames and select the sharper ones for stacking.
