The dots do appear to be something on the scope or camera.  How do I check the telescope lenses?  If it’s dust inside, is it a good idea to take the scope apart to clean it 

Just noticed dots on the planets.  I’ve read the one on Jupiter is a moon shadow.  Is that true for Saturn also?  I keep wiping my screen to see if it’s dirt.

I was finally able to capture Jupiter and Saturn photos tonight.  Jupiter was bright white until i took a really fast ISO100 image.  I'm really really excited about these   They aren't perfect but they're my personal best.  I'm using a DSLR on top of an eyepiece attachment.  I was never able to focus the DSLR on planets without the eyepiece.
