With a single exposure, using a much faster shutter speed will help by reducing the time available to the turbulence to affect your image.
ISO 1600 and a high shutter speed, such as 1/1500 to 1/4000 sec depending on how full the Moon is can improve your image.
If your camera has Liveview set it to 5x and use it to focus.

Thanks, this camera is also a 4k video camera, what would the appropriate software be? I'd like to try it and see what results I get.
