Ok, I'm out at my scope again. I'm missing something.

Camera is set to 30fps, 1/30s, average gain settings I think. The scope is focused with an eyepiece in it. I put the camera in. I know it's connected and working by putting a torch in the end of scope and see it on screen.

I pull the camera slowly out of the barrel and can't get focus. Can't even see a faint hint of a star. Can't see the Moon yet over my very limited horizon, but it's not far away. But the star is Fomalhaut, so no exactly dim either.
