Starting Astrophotograpghy

Hi members of IIS,

I want to really start to do some astrophotography but it seems that cameras are too expensive. I dont want to spend too much money but i want to spend enough so that i will get some good results. my pice range is from 0-250 dollars. I have a SLR camera at the moment but it has the lense attached to so there is no way of removing it. Its called the 'Canon Powershot SX10IS. On this camera you can change the exposure time and shutter speed but the thing that is stopping me is the lense, i dont know if i can attach it to the telescope with a t-ring and all of the other stuff. Oh by the way my telescope is a 8" inch dobsonian. I know that i will need a barlow lense and all that so no need to mention it or anything.

Kind regards Frostyricho
