purhaps you should look outside the square, your on a astro site so naturally our ideas are that way inclined. Perhaps you might be better considering just going down the photography path. The second generation of Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras are coming on the market. You might find some of the older bodies coming on the market cheaply. There are lots of Nikon lenses available and for occasional use a manual lens and 2x multiplyier will be far more convienient to use than any astro telescope camera combination.
I have just been doing some tests with a "projection eyepiece" I was sold by a Sydney dealer, the results were attrocious and totally unuseable.
Alternatively there are telescopes and binoculars with cameras built in for simple snaps.
