So, your point is that the Moon and Jupiter must be about the same distance from earth due to this poorly executed observation, right? Tell us, please, why then were we able to see every crater on ths Moon, yet Jupiter was too blurry to see the bands or the big red spot.

You couldn't see the bands on Jupiter for a different reason, the P1000 overexposed it like crazy because flerfs don't know how to use manual camera settings to get it right and the camera doesn't know how to expose for Jupiter. That being said, this experiment still proves nothing as both the Moon and Jupiter are so far away they are in the same plane of focus, despite being very different distances.

now pan to a building 200meters away...

They are both so far away that your camera needs to focus as far away as it can. If you use a tool that is designed to focus light from that far away like a telescope with a good optic you'll find that the focus has to change between them.

Where "same focus" means completely out of focus.

It's the equi-fuzzy focus option I think.

Do you think things become invisible when they're out of focus

So our moon now bears a new name - Luna

Ive taken this up with the globies and their explanation is that anything beyond a few tens of miles is infinity focus. Im no expert in photography so i havent looked into it further, but if true i guess that explains it but i think its weird.

Hahahahahaha! How can they be millions of miles apart and both at the same focus? Hahahahahahahahaha! Have a look at a camera lens. The focus ring will have numbers on it like 4, 5, 6, 8,12, 30 and infinity. These numbers are feet. The lens may be focused at 6, or 30 feet. Or infinity. Guess what. On those scales the moon and Jupiter are both at infinity on your lens.
