D2x..

Hi all

[QUOTE]You need a camera to telescope adapter and set your exposure time to BULB you will also need a electronic cable release. http://www.adorama.com/PH18320.html
If you read the Nikon D2x Camera manual it will explain hot to do the settings./QUOTE]

[QUOTE]here is a great tutorial written by Mike on how to do nightscapes (camera and lens) the same concepts will apply no matter the camera you use.

for a telescope you will need a t mount and t ring to attach to your telescope. as mentioned below you will need to set it to bulb mode to shoot (i'm guessing) past 30 seconds./QUOTE]

Yes Geoff and Rusty i have these accessories already, telescope there is no problem, have 3 major telescope i can put them on, LX200 12"ACF, RCX400 14", and the monster Planewave CDK27" (which is still in the box) need a good place for it..
I also have some small portable one i use to get around 10" LX200 but i just want to play around with a correct setting for wide filed on the D2X thats all tho i appreciate the links and everything
