Nope. Nikon and patience with Finger on button!
I was lucky, been waiting for years for a pass over my house, this one happened at 9pm and had a visible pass for half of it.
Still freaks me out seeing something moving through the view finder, even if I knew it was coming.
First time a satellite passed my field of view I nearly had a heart attack!

Cheers guys.
Leif, the "Super Moon" is going to be 3% bigger than average.
It wont look any bigger than normal.
People will go out an look at it due to the hype and be so convinced that it is bigger before they see it that they will think it looks bigger than normal.
Full moons are boring.
See the difference in craters in the above photo on the left and right side?
The left side shows more craters as the shadow highlights them.
A full moon just looks like a white ball.
