If you were going to buy planetary eyepieces specifically to get the most out of viewing Saturn and Jupiter what would you recommend?

As a novice, I have a real hard time getting a well focused image using the viewfinder on the Nikon D70. Is there any way to connect the D70 through the IEEE/usb connector and get a live viewfinder image on my laptop?

Can anyone give me some advise on running my telescope from a PC laptop computer. I have load ASCOM and the celestron driver.
I have tried USB to serial interface connected into AUX1 and I have also tried a network cable from the PC connection on the mount to the network card of the computer.
The problem seems to be that the Ascom software is looking for a com port but I am using a network or USB connection. Has anyone found a solution to the problem?
Thanks for your time.

I have a 9.25 CPC and I have been trying to link starry night to the telescope. I have loaded the ASCOM drivers for celestron into the Starry night folder but it is not recognized. Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks
