Mark,

here’s my take last July on a crop format using a 40yo or so Novoflex 400mm @ >iso12k - Hand held ! 
I mean the remote ;-)

> Blood moons with or without eclipses I've shot a few times here in NY this digital decade shooting moons is a thing where people don’t realize how much light is really coming off the moon. It's pretty darned bright doing a pretty good job of reflecting light from the sun as Ansel says in his books. It can easily be done hand held and the moon is not standing still. But these blood moons especially with the eclipse are quite low light expiries. A real challenge. Maybe a tripod thing. That’s how I shot it the last time. And didn't do too well.

But I was going to do it anyway as I wanted to see what it can really do. That state of DX.  Was also curious how it might look at its native top ISO of 51,200 and thought it might be viable or maybe a viable effect.
