Hi everyone,
This is my first post here and you must know that I am very new to this.
My goal has nothing to do with astronomy or astrophotography although it has everything to do with high magnification and photography of objects far off the ground and in high orbit around the planet.
The idea came after looking at several videos on youtube taken with night vision devices.
A second idea came after discovering optic tracker which allows you to control a celestron nexstar se or meade lx200 mount to lock onto any moving target and record it.

I do not have a question as such. I need recommendations.
Facts:
1. restricted to lx200 series scopes since these scopes are not interchangeable and the mounts are not sold separately
2. restricted to celestron nexstar se series (scope & mount) or celestron nexstar se mount with maybe some other scope (here I need your help - what other scopes can I mount on these?)
3. My estimation is that a 4'' scope and up can provide enough magnification to be able to recognize the ISS for example. An 8'' to 10'' is enough to see quite a bit of detail on the ISS.
4. Choice of telescope in order to increase resolution depends on budget. The more money, the higher the resolution.

The next questions may be best for the astrophotography section, but may be relevant here also:

5. The object here is to get good quality video but since the object will resemble an airplane or jet as opposed to a galaxy, stacking stills to get an image is probably futile i guess? Will a normal HD camcorder do for the purpose?
6. I calculated that a 300x to 800x magnification is good enough for the ISS. Around 100x is good for a plane at 30000ft. Assuming a 1000mm FL, what kind of barlows/eyepieces/camera do you think would be suited for between 100x to 800x?

I hope I have provided as much information as possible to get a few good answers back in return!
If you need more details please let me know, but bear in mind that I have not done this before, and neither have the OpticTracker team who have helped me to the best of their ability.

Thanks for your time
Regards
Telis
