I use my 250mm newt for prime focus imaging.

I also have a nice Minolta XD5 SLR that has a range of lenses :
ie
a 200mm f1.4
a 200mm f3.5
a 75-150mm f3.5
a 28-75mm f3.5
a 50mm f1.2

I still have my original old 60mm refractor (1960s vintage that serves as a guidescope) that I have been known to image though too.

I had a Vixen FL104 until last year.

I made some bids on that Enhanced Celestron 8" f1.5 schmidt camera that was on Ebay not so long ago but missed out). Guess I wont see another one of them for a long time.

I've even messed about with film hypersensitisation , still have the Lumicon kit but have mislayed the gas bottle , guess I need to get a new gas bottle and more forming gas sometime.

I haven't yet migrated to the digital astrophotography.
