prepare yourself for the real thing then.
Bermula Get a DSLR tak penting jenama apa. For long term venture into astrophotography a Canon body is most suitable.
Kedua Practise shooting the moon preferably the full moon. Remember the lunar eclipse last a long time.
Start by using a tripod. Use the longest focal length lens that you have with ISO set at the lowest for your camera, either 100 or 200, focus set at infinity. Because the moon is moving, do not use a long shutter speed; it should be faster than say about 1/125th of a second. You will have to use manual mode because the auto mode will try to give you a gray sky and the moon will be completely blown out. Once you have found the correct exposure for the full moon, use it as a starting point.
Remember to move the camera to follow the moon as it will move quite some distance during say the 3 hours.
Practise with the different moon phases.
