DSLRs and Astrophotography (Newbie here)

CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

Not sure about your question but when Prime Focus is mentioned for astrophotography, it usually means that the Telescope is mounted on the Camera much like a normal lens is. Eyepience projection means that the camera is mounted but focusing is through the eyepiece. I'll take a couple of photos for you to see as I'm gonna do some backyard astro-photography later tonight. Will post the pics in the album under "You and your telescopes" section.
I can only identify Orion! :shock:
