Thanks guys
I've got a tripod for photography, but I guess I need an attachment to clip the bino's on? Incidently, that reminds me of a funny story... I was in one of the rather large camera shops in Perth yesterday, buying a backpack for my camera/laptop. They've got a rather big section of telescopes there (mostly Tasco's), so I thought I'd have a sticky beak. While I was looking, some old guy came up and started talking to me about the scopes. Straight away he took me over to a $119 60mm reflector and told me it was the bee's knees, and that it was the perfect scope for me. He pointed out a picture on the wall, and told me that he took that photo through this scope. Now the funny part was that the photo was actually a drawing, showing a black hole surrounding by an accretion disk with two large radio jets comming out of it. Even if it was a real picture, it would have had to have been imaged in the x-ray spectrum... all with a $119 reflector. I just smiled and left...
Cheers,
Brad
