scope 127mm skywatcher, camera samsung nv4 8mp e/p 20mm. camera setting on fluorescent light mode.

Very nice.

removed editied picie , just noticed you intentionally used the flourecent setting. I'd taken all the blue out for you.

Sorry,

Very nice. Also encouraging that you've got a similar scope as mine, I just need a decent camera.

One question that is probably a really stupid question but how do you attach the camera to the eyepiece?

well if you have a dslr you will need an adaptor of some sort a , like a t adaptor if you have a nikon , or similar for canon ect ,

Cheers pete, I've got exactly the same adapter and a similar camera but find it really difficult to align well enough to get anything worth posting.

Nice job Pete... the flourescent white balance setting has produced an interesting effect...
