Starting out with a DSLR and a Newtonian

Hi all,

I'm new here, but have a big question to start off...

I have a Canon EOS 350D digital SLR, and my dad and I are looking to get started with astrophotography using my camera and his 4.5" Netwonian.

There seem to be a few methods of doing this, but I'm unsure of which is the best for us, and what equipment we need (and, of course, where to buy it!). The scope has an EQ mount with a motor drive, but we've never used the drive.

I had a look around here, found some bits and pieces of information about what I'm looking to do, but wasn't sure so I figured I'd be better off to ask


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
~ Evan C
