[The Mekon (John Briggs)]

OK, I have been to IISAC and asked around about astro-imaging.

looking to try the cheap option which is DSLR, Nikon body only, as I already have many Nikon lenses from my old F. Also already have Nikon adaptor for the telescope.

Looking on Ebay, but how to interpret their range??

D40, D50, D70, D80, D90....
D200, D300....
D3000 etc.......

My sister has a D3000, which she assures me is not 60x better than a D50!

Please can someone assist in narrowing down my search?

Not really interested in using this camera for daytime.

thanks
