Yep, and for portability the 80mm refractor is a great option. This, combined with a longer/bigger newt gives very good bang for buck. 80mm for wide stuff, newt for smaller DSO's. Both cheap to acquire and while they are no R/C imaging machine, they will do most that you want.
Get a good image capture program to go with the Canon, something like Maxim DSLR or Images Plus or whatever, and away you go.
