Hi,
that's more then i could get trying to take pictures with my camera of saturn. I don't think my baby telescope helped much either. I have just put a deposit on the same scope as you have and I have bought the Celestron NexImage camera as i want to be able to get half decent pictures also. Tip though, the camera is lots cheaper if you buy it from America (sad i know) but as this is not going to be a cheap hobby I will try to save where I can. I got mine off eBay.
