Good point Stu! Thanks guys! I REALLY appreciate the assistance. I guess this is a new language to me at this point.
It's a bit overwhelming at this point. The good news is that I'm a quick learner.
When I got a DSLR, all the language was new and overly complicated compared to point and shoots I'd used previously (aperture, ISO, shutter priority, lens zoom measured in millimeters, f-stops, f3.5 vs f22, field of view, EF-S vs EF lens mounts, crop sensors vs full frame, STM, white balance, exposure, polarizers, etc...)
That stuff all makes sense to me now.
Ouroboros, I have a Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR. (or 1000D)
I checked and it has a 22.2mm X 14.8mm image sensor. It is 3888 X 2592 pixels.
My telescope is a Galileo brand 700x76mm reflector.
Thanks also for that astronomy too link Stu. That really helped. Also seeing the image you posted of the moon in the camera sensor in my scope really helped clarify things. Thanks!
