Nice shot Greg. I can't wait unti M42 is up during the evening. I'm not one to wake up at 4:00AM to image.

Thanks for a very nice image!

Although not as nice, here is Venus and the moon last night using a Canon 300D through the Canon 18~55 lens.

Which Camera?

Posted By Joe Ramacciotti

Hello Scott.

Just a thought... have you considered a DSLR camera? The Canon 300D does and excellent job and you can get one for about $350. You'll need a couple of adapters, from Orion at about $45. It can be completely oontrolled via a laptop. The only issue is it's not cooled.
