Hi Peggy, The 130SLT will work with a DSLR. You can use it at prime focus, or with a standard 1.25" camera adaptor.
To use at prime focus you need to unscrew the short adapter sticking out of the focusser that has either 1 or 2 eyepiece securing screws in it. This leaves a male thread showing on the focusser. A T-adaptor for your brand of DSLR will screw straight onto that thread, bringing your camera
about 25mm further in. Any standard camera adaptor will screw into the aforementioned T- adaptor, and the other end of course pushes into where you normally put the eyepiece. You can put a range of different
focal length eyepieces into the adaptor to achieve the desired magnification. Basic adaptors are super cheap on ebay if you don't have one, and the same goes for T-adaptors.
Hope this helps
