I did NOT take any pictures because I could NOT see anything in the LCD view finder.

I took my camera (but not the telescope) out the following night to do some tests. I could barely see the street light in the LCD view finder but it looked like a faint star. I will not be using my Pentax camera for astrophotography. I do have a $165 Acuter Attacco standard 31.8mm 300,000 pixel camera that I bought at the same time I bought the telescope. I haven't used it yet and will try it out during the daylight hours (sometime). If that will give me a picture during the day, I'll try it at night.

I have no interest in taking multipul pictures and stacking them.
