There seems to be a lot of people trying to go down this path with DSLR's and imaging the planets.

It is far more cost effective and you get better results with a webcam. DSLR's cannot perform the same way. Start with a phillips 900 NC. Mathew Lovell has them at http://www.telescopes-astronomy.com.au/

He is a little slow to respond, but I know he has them. You will need to use an adapter too and he has them too. Total cost something like 250 dollars. You just need a laptop to complete the basics. A good quality barlow and you can be like the rest of us waiting for that night of perfect seeing.
