This is how I started out with astrophotography. I bought an 8" Dob and used it for visual use before getting myself into the deep end of astrophotography. I then moved on and bought myself an old 1970's model SLR camera and then came across the webcam. Took some great shots but eventually wanted more so I purchased an EQ6. I interchange between a TAL 200K and my Dob OTA on the EQ6. Those extra images caught while tracking certainly improved on what I was getting when using a webcam and the Dob.
