Question Some toUcam questions

Hey Hey

Have a few questions 'bout the toUcam pro II 840k. I understand you can buy the standard 'out-of-the-box' toUcam pro II , or the modified version for longer exposures and the like. The modded version is considererably dearer than the standard cam, but is it worth the extra money for someone starting out with CCD astro-imaging?

Also I have a question about the adapter that fits into the toUcam pro II. The adapter screws into the cam, and then is fitted onto the telescope (in my case the meade LX60 8"). But I'm a bit unclear about where exactly the 1.25" adapter fits.
The webcam and the adapter, I am assuming, is all I need to start imaging... or have I left something out?

Someone enlighten me
