Obviously you would need a lens.
What you want to do with the webcam?
They are cheap as chips (from $20).

It should work fine as a web cam, and most of the low end zwo cams come with a wide angle lens included.

Hi Itterdumer

For Planetary you will need a scope and mount.
And that is another topic well covered in IIS.

If you are really new to AP the 2 forums above are well supported by the 'clever ones'.
