Starblast 4.5 imaging ota and DSLR?

[sambarber]

I've been looking at Orion's starblast 4.5 imaging ota for imaging dsos on my smarteq mount. My only question is will it function with my canon1100d DSLR . If you have any experience in this matter plz comment. Thanks!

Its an intermediate telescope. Specially someone who is interested in astrophotography . Also has a decent steallar magnifude of 12.9....so most of the major dso's can b easily captured. If u ask me id say go for it. 

Why dont you choose a nikon instead if a canon...??.. its new intry level cameras have better sensors than the 1100d...for eg. The nikon d3300. Just that u may need an intervalometer for longer exposures and avoid shake. Its just my opinion though.
