Hi,

I've been doing research about beginning astrophotography and found that to take successful long exposures you need to Polar Align your scope.

I might start out with imaging bright objects like planets and the moon before I start imaging DSOs. With Mars at its opposition in December does anyone have opinions of which webcam package would be the best to start out with. I've read great reviews about the SPC900nc and the Celestron Neximage for Lunar & Planetary use. IMHO i'd like to purchase a camera that includes software and is easy to use. Don't forget at a reasonable price!

Best Regards
Matt
