I am purchasing an EOS-350D Modified camera off Astromart and planning to use it on my FSQ-106ED. Anyone else using a Canon DSLR camera on a FSQ and can tell me what adapters I require.

Also, what astro image capturing software is ideal for use with the Canon EOS cameras?

10->8->70->35->33. 34 is optional. :P

The supplied Canon EOS Utility software should be sufficient. Otherwise, have a look at APT, CCDSoft or MaxIm/DL.

Perhaps it would be worth considering the 40D, 450D onwards which have live view and the EOS software is better.

It would be interesting, and very informative, if someone could explain what function each adaptor performs.
