This was my post just over a week ago....
Hi Guys and Girls,
I was just wondering what kind of magnification you get when attaching a dslr (Nikon d90) to a 10" Newtonian.
i have seen pics of say....Jupiter, (with all the bands, red spot and moons) and they are clear as, full screen and all done with the equipment above.
I realize filters have been used....
but I cant understand that no Barlow, eyepiece or camera lens has been used....
Or am I mistaken?
How do they/you guys do it?

The reply was....
Bart the telescope
IS the camera lens. In that case it's a 1500mm telephoto lense (quote from 1ponders)
As soon as 1ponders said that, I went DOooooH of course!
Just didn't think before i spoke
