Hi Terri, Firstly, you say that your 80mm scope is Go To on a very basic tripod. Any Go To scope's tripod should be adequate for the scope's needs; what brand and model is it?
An 80mm will give quite good views of many of the brighter deep space
objects, and will easily handle a DSLR,[using the appropriate T-ring for your Canon], although, as Astral Traveller said, I would forget imaging
until you acquire more general knowledge.
