Paul,
good idea, let us know how you get on.
I recall my first shot with the new digital SLR. It was of Omega Cent, and through an MN66. Flopped it into the focuser, shot about 3 minutes, no guiding, not nothing. It was perfect, but was alsao a fluke, as I haven't been able to duplicate it, not since.
Now I have an ST80 (Nextstar 80) as a guidescope, with a ToUcam (not modded) and use IRIS to guide. When everything goes OK I get good results, but the frustration levels are up there, and I sometimes wonder "why". Sometimes it is just nice to actually look through an eyepiece, and reflect.
