You'll probably have a lot of trouble getting sufficient backfocus to take pics. Point it at the moon tonight and put a piece of paper where the eyepiece normally goes. The image plan (point where you see the moon projected on the card) is where your camera sensor will need to be.

Lots of threads on here about cutting down the tube of reflectors to bring out the focal plan, or putting on a low profile focuser. Some modern Newts allow you to attach T ring natively without surgery.

Good luck!
