It's the human eye and brain that increase the subjective size of the moon.
To test this, turn away from the moon and hold your thumb and index finger at arm's length in front of your face and apart just enough to touch the edges of the moon. Without bringing your thumb and index finger closer together, and still keeping them at arm's turn back towards the moon and see if you got the size right. You'll find that the size of the moon is closer to what your camera displayed.
