Hiya all,
I was wondering if anyone can chip in with some advice.
I am looking to sink into astro-imaging (same old story) and I want to start with a DSLR and a GOTO mount such as a Skywatcher EQ6.
I'm not new to Astronomy, i owned a LX-90 with wedge and other bits and bobs, but just didn't get a camera suitable for imaging.
Is it possible via an adaptor or something, to mount a DSLR directly to a GEM mount with the lens on to take some nice 30sec plus exposure wide angle pics?
Also, what would be a good DSLR to get going with? I have looked at the 450D and 1000D, i don't know that much about SLR's , or would a 300/350D do the trick?
I would like to control it via a laptop if possible.
Any help appreciated.
