Centrosphere, I believe you will find that the cameras used on the Moon were vidicons, empty state electronics, that are very susceptible to blooming. With CCDs blooming should not be a significant problem compared to what you get with vidicons.

(Somewhere around here I have some vidicon cameras from the 80s. Their blooming is VERY dramatically worse than what I get with the CCD camera I have.)
