Yes Scott thats why I bought it. The other lens I have will only work with a Canon EOS camera. This one will work with any camera as it is fully manual.
It was my intention to get an Sbig of some sort to do widefield. Buying the 5DH has slowed down that one.The other thing it would be good for is automated comet or supernova hunting. With the wide field you could really cover a lot of sky quickly. I haven't worked out the limiting magnitude but it would be fairly impressive for any sky condition. The fact you could image Thor's Helmet with a near full Moon tells me it would pick up comets easily.
The possibilities are many.
