the moon does not rotate in the same way as jupiter or the other planets so time is not a huge factor, the dmk will shoot at 60 frames per second , its more the shutter speed vs brightnees that helps for moon shots.
a higher shutter speed will FREEZE the action better but you still need it bright enough to be clear and not grainy , the graininess will increase as you turn up the gain.
you can shoot 15 frames per second and 4 minutes it will be EXACTLY the same as shooting 60 frames per second for 1 minute. provided your shutter speed is the same ....ie.... 120th of a second
Seeing (the amount of atmospheric turbulence) will be the greatest factor that determines all your results.
planets aother than the moon are different as they have noticable rotation after a short period of time.
