Planets and the moon is about all the ETX-60 motors can handle really... The guiding is not accurate enough for long exposure stuff, and a DSLR will collide with the fork mount.

I used to use my standard digital compact camera on a (very bad) adaptor to take moonshots through an eyepiece - nowdays, the adaptors to fit a camera to the scope are much better though. I still have that adaptor here if you want it (PM me)

I started with just getting the moon in the Field of View on the moon, and taking a snap down the eyepiece. Its pretty easy to do, you just need a fast shutter speed and a steady hand.

Good luck, and make sure you post your results here!

Cheers,

Richie

Yup - mine were too... This seems to do the business....
