Olympus Pen F with Metabones Speed Booster and Laowa 12mm f/2.8 or Voigtlander 10.5mm f/0.95 or Nikon D800 with the Laowa 12mm f/2.8. The need to keep in touch with the past is a Nikon Photomic FTn or Nikon F2A and a Nikkor 25-50mm f/4 AI
One of the main issues you would have noticed is how dark the moon is (from a camera's perspective) once it's fully red.
An unobscured full moon is otherwise very bright, and you can easily achieve a sufficiently fast shutter speed to avoid any slight motion blur. When the moon is red, you need a slower shutter speed to expose it correctly, but you run the risk of slight motion blur. Increasing the ISO is a way around this.
What you also would have noticed when framing the moon is that it moves quickly. The longer your focal length, the more pronounced the movement, so again shutter speed becomes very important.
