But back to the OPs observation. Pixel Peeping is going to get you upset. Nikon d600, 300/4 AF with Mup - remote release but I was standing right next to it.
These examples are (I just took them right after my Moon/Venus shot) :
15 sec f/8 ISO 800 (yeah I forgot to increase the aperture )
10 sec f/8 ISO 800
1.3 sec f/8 ISO 800
all cropped about 125%
You really have to experiment more with higher ISOs, and working the Blacks and Whites in LightRoom/PS an the above suggestions such as stacking. If you notice on the 2nd photo I creeped off the concrete pad I have my scope on most of the time. And you can see the reaction in the photo .. the jilted star trails. I normally shoot with a radio remote from about 10 feet away on each of my scope shots.
