Thinking of getting a Nikon dlsr d3400  with Bluetooth so I can fend pics to my I pad will I be able take pics of deep sky object with it or not bother thanks adidaz29

For imaging of Deep Sky Objects it would be best if we knew what scope/mount set up you have.  Looking at the title of your post, if you have a Dob mount then the likely situation is a non-starter.

I'm deciding between a Nikon D5500 and a Canon 760D both have touch screen and Wi-Fi

The Nikon has the edge in that it has no optical LP filter and is a bit cheaper with a built intervalometer

The Canon has better support and cheaper lenses

You could of course go for a modded camera

But using a dob, then forget it, without auto tracking it isn't possible on DSO's or much else for that matter

A dob is best suited for visual, and would need a top end goto/tracking mount to take DSO's pics

I use a canon 350d with my 200 SW DOB.

Got some reasonable images with it but struggling with tracking with my dob.
