As an update -

Thank you to everone posted above, and as mentioned elsewhere I managed to avoid having to purchase a DSLR, (due to my nice uncle having a 300D that the auto focus mirror broke, blocking the sensor - a common problem it seems, but for astro its great - I just stuck the little mirror in the big one :) - so yay, a canon dslr ......

Then I was able to put my resources towards goto for my EQ5 which is working quite well so far.....only tried it once. :) but thank you to those above for advice and other great suggestions etc. much appreciated.

Now I just need to learn how to make nice pictures with it. :)

By the way, the mirror slap is managable by using remote shutter triggers, enough so that tracking and other causes of vibration takes priority, though for perfectionists the lock-up might still be worth looking at.

Regards

Aenima
