With this camera linked at the bottom you can record video and do planetary photogrpahy http://www.iceinspace.com.au/63-306-0-0-1-0.html

if you get it with the standard lens kit you can also do wide field astro photography (see the nightscapes section on IIS http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/f...splay.php?f=49 for inspiration). that should keep you going till you save up for an appropriate equatorial mount (eg skywatcher HEQ5).. you can then use the same camera for deep sky.

Also it might pay to join a local astronomy club, they may have scopes available for borrowing and you will learn a lot from the people.

Best of luck
