Hi Matt I use a 300d and leave it run whilst getting other stuff ready (there is always other stuff) I dont worry even about a good focus first shot (it takes a few to get it spot on) just a ruff marker on the scope and use the time to fine tune focus. I had thought of a web cam set in the polar scope tube which seems like a good idea and when I get a lap top will try that approach. I have a eq5 mount which I now have some respect for because even a poor mount works well if spot on aligned. I am limited to shooting between the "bumps" however. On my wide fields such an alignment sees no adjustment of the tracking scope for up to 45 minutes exposures (only done that once )
