What I think I need is Digital Astro Imageing + processing for dummys.

:D

Just kidding , be nice if there were some tips all in one place that an old 35mm film dinosaur like myself can relate to and is not written assuming a raw beginner in astroimaging :D

Well at least until I get familiar with the 40D and sort out how I will be processing the images. CS3 ?? or something else ??

Gezz Ian, Astrophotography must be the easiest subject I have ever researched on line. There is stuff everywhere. Here's a good one on processing a familiar target-> http://www.mistisoftware.com/astronomy/Process_m8.htm

Google is your friend.
