Er... if you can focus on the moon everything else will be at the same focus. No adjustment needed !

Are you sure you know what you're doing ? With a 130mm scope and a fairly ordinary DSLR there's a good chance it won't show any stars in the viewfinder, unless you happen to be pointing it at the really brightest ones - Sirius, Canopus, Rigel; or Venus/Jupiter.

Focus on these, lock the focus and then go point it where you like. This is a rough start, there are better ways but it sounds like you have a lot to learn and a rather small scope.
